Horse Racing Betting on Popular Race Events in 2021

Horse Racing throughout the UK commands a massive following with annual events including the Grand National and the Cheltenham Festival viewed as the best horse racing events around the world. The latter boasts a prize pool of well in excess of £4,500,000; whilst the Grand National event itself boasts the largest, with over £1,000,000 awarded the winner of the main event itself.

Prize pools such as these are more than enough to consistently attract the best trainers, horses and jockeys to the events and they are yielded as the most prestigious events in the entire Horse Racing calender worldwide. One other huge market which runs parallel of course, is the betting industry; bookmakers and punters alike live for laying and placing bets on these events. The betting industry itself has more than quadrupled in size since early 2000’s, largely down to the emergence of such a competitive online betting scene in terms of bookmakers and casinos.

Horse Racing is not alone in terms of the most popular betting markets, but it certainly offers the punters a unique opportunity of winning life changing sums of money through the use of accumulator bets, or in terms of events like the Grand National main event, a clever bet on an outsider or a lowly tipped horse which at short notice would appear to favour the ground and conditions in which the race will play out in.

Top bookies, and to fair new bookmakers entering the market, go all out for the Grand National and Cheltenham to entice punters to use their platform to place their bets. Competition is fierce, with bookmakers often offering additional places for some races, and “money back” bets if your first race of Cheltenham (for example), loses.

Based on this, it’s critically important for the public looking to place to bets to do their research not only on the horses they choose to back, but also to do extensive research on ALL potential bookmakers before placing their bets. This ensures not only achieving the best odds, but also taking advantage of Festival promotions from the bookies which often are not made available until a day or two before the event(s).

Those sites have in-depth reviews on bookmakers, focusing on their sign up deals, on-going promotional benefits and customer service amongst other important factors including odds and deposits/withdrawals.
