Outcomes

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

OutcomeGenting BetBetfairProfit/Loss
Monmiral wins+ £10.00– £10.75£0.75 loss
Monmiral loses– £10.00+ £9.24£0.76 loss

So, no matter the outcome, we’ll lose a maximum of £0.76 in qualifying for our £5.00 free bet.

Free bet

Our £5.00 free bet will be credited by 17:15 on Saturday 10th April 2021 and will be valid on the Grand National 2021 Steeplechase. Free bet stakes will not be returned with any winnings.

Using straightforward matched betting, we should be able to convert our free bet into 80% cash, so £4.00. If we take into account our maximum qualifying loss of £0.76, this gives us a guaranteed profit of £3.24 on this Genting Bet offer!

* Monmiral won the race, resulting in a profit of £3.25 on this Genting Bet offer. *
