Horse Racing Tips

The best way to bet on horse racing is to head to your Bet Nation or app or to the Bet Nation website.

From here, find the racing and it will open you up to a range of horse racing markets available to punt on with Bet Nation.

From the biggest of Group 1s to the smallest of maiden races, Bet Nation has got your horse racing punting covered seven days a week.

The easiest way to win on horse racing is to back them to actually win the race.

This requires you to select your preferred horse, click the win odds section and place your bet through the bet slip section.
Eg: Betting $100 on Winx at $2 would mean if she was to win the race you would collect $200 for a profit of $100

Exotic bets are bets that focus on not only finding the winner but a handful of placings after that. 

Here is a list of exotics you can play with Bet Nation; 

Quinella – Finding the first two horses past the finish post. 

Exacta – Finding the first and the second horses past the post in exact order. 

Trifecta – Finding the first three horses past the post. 

First Four – Finding the first four horses past the post. 

A quaddie consists of finding the winners of four selected races within a horse racing meeting. 

The races usually assigned for the quaddie are in the middle of the program. 

You are required to select the greyhounds you think will win each race in the quaddie. 

Eg: Flemington Quaddie (Races 6-9) 

Race 6/Leg 1: 1, 2
Race 7/Leg 2: 1, 4, 6, 7
Race 8/Leg 3: 4, 5
Race 9/Leg 4: 6, 7, 8

From here, the amount of horses you select in each leg is multiplied by the next leg to create a series of combinations. 

Leg 1: Two horses
Leg 2: Four horses
Leg 3: Two horses
Leg 4: Three horses
Combinations = 48. 

Your dollar amount bet is then divided by the amount of combinations which gives you a percentage. 

This percentage is then used to calculate how much of quaddie dividend you receive if you are to find all four winners.
