Qualifying bet

Please see my ‘Qualifying Bets Guide‘ if you’d like more information about them and how they work.

It’s entirely up to you which horse you go for, but it would make sense to select a horse with relatively short odds in the hope of a 2nd or 3rd place finish.

At the time of writing, ‘The Hollow Ginge‘ is available at back odds of 4.00 (3/1) and lay odds of 4.30.

Either exchange works for this offer

Betfair and Smarkets are both great options for this offer. If you’ve not used one of them, now is a great time to give them a try.

  • Money back as cash up to £20
  • 0% commission for 60 days

You can calculate your lay stake using my Matched Betting Calculator.

So, you’ll make a profit of £9.16 if The Hollow Ginge finishes 2nd or 3rd. Any other outcome, and you’ll lose a maximum of £0.85. Risking £0.85 to make a potential profit of £9.16 gives you effective odds of 11.78, which I’m sure you’ll agree, makes this a profitable offer in the long run.

If eligible, your cash refund will be credited as soon as possible, within 24 hours.
