Yorkshire Ebor Festival 2019 Offer (Day 2) – Paddy Power

It’s Day 2 of the Yorkshire Ebor Festival 2019 on Thursday and you don’t want to miss this Money Back Special from Paddy Power! Simply place a bet of up to £10.00 on the 13:55 at York and if Liberty Beach wins, Paddy Power will refund all losing bets as a free bet, up to a maximum of £10.00. Translated into matched betting terms, this gives us a potential profit of £7.30 and here’s how…

Key Terms:

  • We must place our bet between 10:00 on Monday 19th August 2019 and 13:55 (race-off) on Thursday 22nd August 2019.
  • Offer applies to single bets or the win part of each way bets.
  • If less than 6 runners take part, this offer will not apply.
  • If our horse loses and Liberty Beach wins the race, Paddy Power will refund our stake as a free bet, 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.

For our qualifying bet, we need to back and lay any horse other than Liberty Beach. At the time of writing, the lay odds aren’t quite tight enough, so I’ll use fictional lay odds for Under The Stars (9/2) in the following example and I’ll update the bottom of the post with an actual selection after the race.

We can calculate our lay stakes using my matched betting calculator.

Aim to lose no more than £0.70 on our qualifying bet

Outcomes:

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

Outcome Bookie Exchange Extracted Profit/Loss
Under The Stars wins +£45.00 -£45.70 £0.70 loss
Liberty Beach wins -£10.00 +£9.30 +£8.00 £7.30 profit
Another horse wins -£10.00 +£9.30 £0.70 loss

So, if Liberty Beach wins, we’ll make a nice profit of £7.30. Any other outcome and we’ll lose £0.70. Risking £0.70 to make a profit of £7.30, gives us effective odds of 11.43. So, given that Liberty Beach is odds of just 2.75 (7/4) to win the race, this is a profitable offer in the long run.

If eligible, free bets will be credited within 2 hours of the race ending and will be valid on any market for 7 days.

If you’re unsure how to extract £8.00 cash (80%) from the £10.00 free bet, check out my Free Bet Strategy page for a walk-through guide on how it should be done.

* Under The Stars was available at back odds of 6.00 and lay odds of 6.60. Living In The Past won the race, resulting in a loss of £1.07 on this Paddy Power offer. *
