What are Fixed Odds?
Fixed Odds-on horse racing means that the odds offered on any horse or event cannot change. If you bet on a runner at specific odds, you can expect an accurate return on your bet.
What is Tote?
Tote odds on the other hand, are the odds for any runner, initially determined by Betway, but with added pressure from horse racing bettors like you.
With more money backing a specific horse, the tote odds can fluctuate dramatically, especially if big bets come late to the market.
Which is better between Tote or Fixed Odds?
Typically, the answer to this question comes down to what kind of horse racing punter you are. But essentially, both have positives and negatives.
Fixed Odds are great if you are able to identify early value in a horse or event when the markets open. Sometimes locking in odds and value early can result in a big advantage before race day.
How can I navigate horse racing events?
On the Betway horse racing page, events and races are arranged in the following way:
- Next Off – races that are due to begin shortly.
- Today – races that are due to set off at some point in the next 24 hours.
- Tomorrow – races that are due to set off at some point on the following day.
- Future – races that are planned for a future date.
- Ante Post – fixtures on events where the runners are yet to be known.
Common horse racing bets
- A Win Bet is the most popular bet, requiring the punter to select the horse they think will finish first in the race.
- Place Betting is another popular bet type, requiring the punter to select a runner to finish either 1st, 2nd or 3rd in the official placings.
- Each Way Betting simply means that you are putting an equal amount of money on a horse to win.
