The Grand National Betting

Nothing gets the nation racing like the Grand National. Held at Aintree each April, this three-day festival builds to one almighty climax with a four-mile steeplechase packed with 30 fences and names like The Chair and Becher’s Brook that every punter knows by heart.

At BetWright, we’ve got the Cheltenham odds, horse racing tips and boosted prices to help you make the most of the action. Whether you’re following form or taking a flyer, this is the meeting where legends are backed and big races are won the Wright way.

Royal Ascot Betting

Top hats, top sprinters, top racing. Royal Ascot brings the glamour and the grit in equal measure. It’s the crown jewel of the flat racing season, with five days of elite contests and a royal nod to tradition.

At BetWright, you’ll find Royal Ascot odds, racing betting markets and daily boosts on headline races like the Gold Cup, Queen Anne Stakes and King’s Stand. It’s fast, it’s fancy and it’s where punters dress to impress and back the Wright pick.

Epsom Derby Betting

It’s not just the Derby. It’s The Derby. The Epsom Downs hosts the biggest flat race of the season where future legends are made and talented three-year-olds chase racing glory.

At BetWright, you’ll get Epsom Derby odds, price boosts and horse racing tips that cut through the noise. Whether you’re team favourite or sniffing out a longshot, Derby Day is the flat season’s headline act and the perfect chance to back the Wright one.

Betting Types

Every punter’s got their favourite flutter. Whether you like keeping it classic or fancy mixing things up, here’s how the main horse racing bets work at BetWright.

Win Bet

The straightforward one. Back a horse to win. If it finishes first, you’re in the money.

Example: You back Constitution Hill to win. It finishes first. Job done.

Each-Way Bet

Two bets in one. One for the win, one for the place. If your horse places, you still get a return.

Example: You go each-way on Desert Orchid. If it wins, both bets land. If it finishes in the top three, the place part pays out.

Place Bet

Just want your horse to place? This one covers it. If it finishes in a top spot, you’re good.

Example: You bet on Sea Biscuit to place. It finishes third. You win.

Forecast Bet

Pick the top two finishers in the exact order. Not easy!

Example: You call Black Beauty first, White Knight second. They finish just like that. You win.

Reverse Forecast Bet

Same idea as a forecast, but the two horses can finish in either order.

Example: You back Tiger Roll and Native River for the top two. If they land first and second, in any order, you’re laughing.

Tricast Bet

Call the top three in the wright order. High risk, big reward.

Example: You go for Gallant Prince, Misty Wind and Golden Arrow to finish first, second and third in that order. They deliver. So does your bet.

Accumulator Bet

Stack multiple bets into one. All your picks need to win but the returns can be higher.

Example: You back four different winners across four races. If they all come in, so does your acca.

Each-Way Rules at a Glance

Each-way betting isn’t just a safety net, it’s a savvy option. Here’s how places are usually paid:

• Fewer than 5 runners = Win only
• 5 to 7 runners = 2 places paid
• 8 to 15 runners = 3 places paid
• 16+ runners (handicaps) = 4 places paid

On selected races, we’ll go the extra furlong with Extra Places, meaning more spots can get a payout. Just look for the Extra Places icon on BetWright to see where we’re giving you more to play for.

Key Tips for Horse Racing Betting

Study the Form

A horse's recent form is a good indicator of its current fitness and performance level. Look at how it has performed in recent races, noting finishes, times and any improvements.

Check the Jockey and Trainer Stats

The combination of a skilled jockey and an experienced trainer can significantly impact a horse's performance. Look for successful trainer-jockey partnerships that have a proven track record.

Pay Attention to Track Conditions

The condition of the track, whether it’s firm, good or heavy, can greatly influence a horse’s chances. Some horses perform better on specific surfaces, so always check the track conditions before placing a bet.

Consider the Distance

Each race has a specific distance and not all horses are suited to all distances. Some excel in sprints, while others are stronger in long-distance races. Make sure you understand how a horse has performed at similar distances in the past.
