Horse Racing Offers

Bet365 Price Promise

Bet on any race shown on ITV and Bet365 will guarantee the best price on every horse. The prices from bookmakers that Bet365 will better are Paddy Power, Ladbrokes, William Hill, Coral, Skybet and Boylesports.

The price guarantee goes live from 10 am of the day of racing. You will find the list of each race on the horse racing section.

ITV Racing 4/1 offer

Place a bet on a horse of odds of 4/1 or bigger that is running in a televised ITV race and if that horse goes onto win then Bet365 will give you a free bet of the same value of your stake up to £/€50 to use in the next ITV televised race.

If you are backing more than one horse in a race, then your first selection will be only valid for the offer. This applies to every race shown on ITV.

Feature Race 4/1 Offer

This offer is on the same lines of the ITV offer, but instead of it being an ITV race, Bet365 pre-select the races in which this offer applies to. Back a single winner of 4/1 or bigger and if your selection wins then you will get a free bet of the value of your stake of up to £/€50.

Same rules apply as in the ITV Racing 4/1 offer.

Each Way Extra

Bet365 have put the power in your hands with this offer. You and you alone can increase or decrease the number of places in where you each-way bet will count.

For example, in a 16-horse race, most bookies payout each way on the first 4 home. But Bet365 gives you the option of increasing the places to 5, 6 and so on or decreasing it to 2 or 3. In the case of increasing your bets each way places then your odds will shorten, but if you think your horse is a sure thing for the top 2, then you will get better each-way odds.

Bet365 offers more excellent offers on horse racing such as payout of disqualified horses. Where one horse is disqualified and there is then another official winner, Bet365 will pay out on both as a winner.

Showcase exclusive prices are where Bet365 will guarantee a price of forecasts and tricasts (when prices are available) on all Irish and UK racing.

Enhanced win prices are also on offer throughout the year.

The big one regarding horse racing that Bet365 have set the bar on, they have abolished 5p in the £ rule 4. This means if a horse of odd of 10/1 to 14/1 gets withdrawn at the start for any reason, unlike other bookmakers Bet365 have totally done away with this, meaning there will be no rule 4 deduction to your bet.

Another excellent feature available on the horse racing section is all the views and tips from the worlds leading horse racing paper, the Racing Post. Each race from the UK and Ireland has the same write-up, anastasis and tips that you would find on the Racing Posts paper.

Are you a fan of the racing from down under? If yes, then Bet365 has several offers on Australian racing that will have you hooked on while waiting in Winx to strut her stuff again.

The offers continue to roll in, like the 2 Goals Ahead offer, in the NFL if your selected team goes 14 points ahead at any stage of the game, then you will be paid out as a winner. The same applies to the upcoming Autumn Rugby International, if your selected team goes 10 points up at any stage then you will be paid out as a winner regardless of the full-time result.

There is also a chance to earn up to 50% boosts on accumulators from the American and Canadian sports, such as American Football, Basketball, Ice Hockey and Baseball games.

While you at it, you can also get enhanced % boost on Tennis and Aussie Rules accumulators.
