Cheltenham offers a wide range of betting options across all races.
Below are the most common bet types you’ll see during the Festival.
Win Bet
A simple bet on a horse to finish first.
If your horse wins, your bet is paid at the odds taken.
Each-Way Bet
An each-way bet is two bets:
One bet for the horse to win
One bet for the horse to place
If your horse wins, both parts are paid.
If your horse places (but does not win), only the place part is paid.
Place terms vary depending on:
Number of runners
Race type
Always check the place terms displayed in the market.
Accumulator (Acca)
An accumulator combines multiple selections into one bet.
All selections must win for the bet to be paid.
In-Play Betting
Many Cheltenham races offer in-play markets.
Odds can change rapidly once the race starts.
