Horse Racing Odds

Never bet on horse racing before? Don’t worry; learning how to understand odds on horse racing is straightforward. Horse racing odds show the likelihood of your horse winning. To understand odds on horse racing, look at the fractional layout, 3/1 for example. The left number represents your potential profit, and the right number shows the bet you have to place on the horse racing betting odds.

Horse racing odds use a probability mechanism showing the theoretical likelihood of a horse finishing ahead of the others. For example, if your horse is 3/1 to win, you could earn a £3 profit on a £1 bet if your selection wins. If you had bet £2, you would make £6 on top of your initial stake. if you need more help with understanding horse racing odds, check out our horse racing betting tips

Each Way Bets

Each Way bets take the probability provided by the mechanism and divide it by ¼ or ⅕ to show the theoretical likelihood of your selection placing. With Each Way bets, you bet twice on the same horse, one time for its ‘win’ likelihood and once for its ‘place’ in the race overall.

How to Choose your Horse Selection

Reading the form guide at the races gives you an indication of which horses suit the course. Any horse that won most previous races on similar terrain could easily win again. Equally, you might avoid a horse carrying lots of weight with a poor recent performance record.
