ApolloBet Cheltenham Offer – £10.00 Free Bet

ApolloBet have launched a great Cheltenham offer!  Simply place a single, £10.00 win bet on any race at Cheltenham on Tuesday and if it loses, ApolloBet will give us a £10.00 free bet to use on the last race on Wednesday.  Translated into matched betting terms, this gives us a guaranteed minimum profit of £6.06 and here’s how…

 

 

Qualifying Bet:

If you’re unsure about how to place qualifying bets, check out my Qualifying Bet Strategy page for a walkthrough guide on how it should be done.

For this particular offer, we need to select a horse that has a decent chance of losing so that we receive the free bet refund.  It therefore makes sense to place our qualifying bet on a horse with long odds.  Having looked at the odds on offer, I’ve opted to place my qualifying bet on Qewy who is running in the Supreme Novices’ Hurdle.

apollobet

Place £10.00 on Qewy @ 15.00 = Potential profit of £140.00

betfair

Lay £9.12 on Qewy @ 16.50 = Potential liability of £141.36

Let’s have a look at our potential profit/loss for the possible outcomes…

 

Qewy wins +£140.00 – £141.36 = £1.36 loss
Qewy doesn’t win -£10.00 + £8.66 + £8.00 (extract 80% from our £10.00 free bet) = £6.66 profit

 

So as things stand we will make £6.66 profit if Qewy doesn’t win and a loss of £1.36 if he does win.  It’s not often that we are able to do this but by placing a further back bet on Qewy, we can guarantee ourselves a profit on any outcome…

apollobet

Place £0.53 on Qewy @ 15.00 = Potential profit of £7.42

Let’s have a look at our overall profit/loss for the possible outcomes…

 

Qewy wins -£1.36 + £7.42 = £6.06 profit
Qewy doesn’t win £6.66 – £0.53 = £6.13 profit

 

So regardless of the result of the Supreme Novices’ Hurdle, we will make a guaranteed minimum profit of £6.06!
