It’s another big day of racing at Leopardstown on Sunday, and you don’t want to miss this Virgin Bet offer! Place a bet on the 13:10 Leopardstown, and if your horse loses, Virgin Bet will refund your stake as a free bet up to £10.00. Translated into matched betting terms, this gives us a profit of £5.25 and here’s how…
Key terms
- Applies to single bets on the 13:10 Leopardstown (Sunday 5th February 2023).
- Applies to bets of up to £10.00.
- Minimum odds of 2.00 (evens).
- If your horse loses, your stake will be refunded as a free bet up to £10.00.
- If eligible, your free bet will be credited within 24 hours of your qualifying bet settling.
- The free bet will be valid on any sport for 7 days.
- The free bet stake will not be returned with any winnings.
Qualifying bet
If your bet loses, your stake will be refunded as a free bet, so you can treat this as a ‘Money Back if Bet Loses‘ offer.
It’s best to select a horse with long odds to maximise profit.
At the time of writing, ‘Banntown Girl‘ is available at back odds of 9.50 (17/2) and lay odds of 12.00.
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 work out your lay stake using the ‘Money Back if Bet Loses‘ setting on my Matched Betting Calculator. You can enter ‘£8.00‘ as your ‘Cashback’ figure as this is the amount you can expect to convert your £10.00 free bet into, should your bet lose.
As you can see, the calculator tells us that your lay stake should be £7.25.
Place £10.00 on ‘Banntown Girl’ @ 9.50 = Potential profit of £85.00
Lay £7.25 on ‘Banntown Girl’ @ 12.00 = Potential liability of £79.75
Outcomes
Let’s look at your profit/loss for the possible outcomes.
| Outcome | Virgin Bet | Smarkets | Free Bet | Profit/Loss |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Banntown Girl wins | + £85.00 | – £79.75 | £5.25 profit | |
| Another horse wins | – £10.00 | + £7.25 | + £8.00 | £5.25 profit |
So, no matter the outcome, you’ll make a minimum profit of £5.25 on this Virgin Bet offer!
If your qualifying bet loses, your free bet will be credited within 24 hours of settlement. Your free bet will be valid on any sport for 7 days, and the free bet stake will not be returned with any winnings.
