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.

CASI CRUDO caught the eye when finishing second over C&D 13 days ago, and a repeat of that effort may be good enough to land the spoils. Chicago Storm is proving a shrewd acquisition forcurrent connections and should run well again,while Risk d’Argent is capable at this level if on a going day.
