Horse Racing Betting Explained

Bet on Horse Racing, your way. Horse Racing on the Betfair Exchange lets you set the odds yourself on over 229 Horse Racing events. Bet on top markets like York 22nd Aug, Chester 22nd Aug or Del Mar (US) 21st Aug. Choose from over 27 Horse Racing venues, and place a Horse Racing bet, either for an outcome (to Back) or against it (to Lay). Here on the Exchange, you can back or lay bets on markets like "Prix de Larc de Triomphe", "1m6f Hcap" and "7f Grp 1", and get the odds you want.

How to bet on Horse Racing

Betting on Horse Racing is simple on the Betfair Exchange. Browse over 51 Horse Racing bets, choose a market, such as Antepost, Win, or Special, and then either match a bet, or set the odds and place a Horse Racing bet against others. You can bet for or against an outcome – e.g. if you're betting on UK Flat Jockey's Championship 2026, you can place a lay bet if you think Billy Loughnane will lose, or you can place a back bet if you think Oisin Murphy will win.

Understanding Horse Racing Betting Odds

We show Horse Racing betting odds on the Exchange in decimals. Horse Racing decimal odds are easy to understand, because they represent the payout you'll get if you win – e.g. 6.5 means you'll receive 65 for every £10 you bet, including your stake, if the bet wins. The Horse Racing odds shown in the blue boxes are set by the layers, and the odds shown in the pink boxes are set by the backers. As a Betfair member, you can ask for the Horse Racing odds that you want.
