BETTING EXPLAINED
Select your horse. Note their name and saddlecloth number
Choose your bet. ‘To win’ or ‘each-way’ are popular types of bet.
‘To win’ is for your horse to come first.
‘Each-way’ is for your horse to come first or to be placed. It’s two bets, so ‘£2 each-way’ = £4 total bet.
Decide the amount – or stake – you are comfortable to bet.
Place your bet. There are different places to bet on course; The Tote, racecourse bookmakers, betting shop or online. Each option offers a different experience.
Collect. Once ‘Weighed-in’ has been announced, present your betting slip and collect any winnings.

KING’S CASTLE made his second start for new yard a winning one when scoring at Ffos Las 25 days ago, coming from further back than the others who made the frame, and he can build on that effort to follow up The main danger could be Foreseen, who has been finding his way for current trainer, ahead of Angelica K.

AL KHAWANEEJ RIVER matched his reappearance form when second at Goodwood 6 weeks ago and remains of interest, particularly as he’s still unexposed at the trip Percy Shelley is yet to win in Britain but is knocking firmly on the door, with Curran also of interest having got back on track at Haydock last week.
