There’s a big day of racing at Kempton on Boxing Day and it’s time for another Sky Bet Money Back Special! If our horse finishes 2nd or 3rd in the 13:20 at Kempton, Sky Bet will refund our stake as cash, up to a maximum of £10.00. Translated into matched betting terms, this gives us a potential profit of £9.00 and here’s how…
Key Terms:
- This offer applies to our first bet on the 13:20 at Kempton.
- Qualifying bets must be placed between 14:00 on Tuesday 24th December 2019 and 13:20 (race-off) on Thursday 26th December 2019.
- If fewer than five runners come under starters orders, Sky Bet may withdraw the offer.
- If our horse finishes 2nd or 3rd, Sky Bet will refund our stake as cash, up to £10.00.
Qualifying Bet:
If you’re unsure about how to place qualifying bets, check out my Qualifying Bet Strategy page for a walk-through guide on how they should be done.
It’s entirely up to you which horse you go for, but it would make sense to select a horse with fairly short odds in the hope of a 2nd or 3rd place finish.
Having looked at the odds available, we could place our qualifying bet on Roll Again.
At the time of writing, laying our bet with Betfair gives us the smallest qualifying loss.
Betfair are currently running a great sign up offer where you pay 0% commission up to £500 for the first 30 days…
If you already have a Betfair account, you can opt to pay just 2% commission by selecting the Basic package.
We can calculate our lay stake using my matched betting calculator…
As you can see, the calculator tells us that our lay stake should be £9.19…
Place £10.00 on Roll Again @ 3.75 = Potential profit of £27.50
Lay £9.19 on Roll Again @ 4.10 = Potential liability of £28.48
Outcomes:
Let’s have a look at our potential profit/loss for the possible outcomes…
| Outcome | Bookie | Exchange | Cashback | Profit/Loss |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Roll Again wins | +£27.50 | -£28.48 | £0.98 loss | |
| Roll Again finishes 2nd or 3rd | -£10.00 | +£9.00 | +£10.00 | £9.00 profit |
| Roll Again finishes outside top 3 | -£10.00 | +£9.00 | £1.00 loss |
So, we’ll make a nice profit of £9.00 if Roll Again finishes 2nd or 3rd and we stand to lose a maximum of £1.00 on any other outcome. Risking £1.00 to make a profit of £9.00 gives us effective odds of 10.00, which I’m sure you’ll agree, makes this a profitable offer in the long run.
If eligible, cash refunds will be credited within 24 hours of the race finishing.
* Roll Again fell, resulting in a loss of £1.00 on this Sky Bet offer. *
