It's usually 30 lengths max for 1 race

damnConfusedi thought that was when there was only one finisher?
Report wondersobright April 19, 2021 8:35 PM BST
as per what the dealer said
Report wondersobright April 19, 2021 8:35 PM BST
1 finisher = 30l also (for fixed odds dist betting)

Consider yoursen unlucky if you are backing the overs and there is a maximum and you don’t win
Report ItsMeSwaddle April 19, 2021 9:03 PM BST
Ps give up backing the overs there.

Can tell you must be 1/10 myself

Thanks for the replies you were all correct
Customer service just confirmed 30 lengths is the max over jumps

is there any edge with distance betting please?
Report Regbutler April 19, 2021 10:12 PM BST
Rico.... Probably to bet unders, imo
It's human nature to want to bet over, as in wanting to bet overs on the goals in football, overs on winning distances
Might not be much fun in wanting no goals, and to a lesser extent, close finishes but there you are
Having said that, probably factored into the prices on here

unless you speak to the jockeys its guessing at its finest..
Report Regbutler April 19, 2021 10:21 PM BST
Not if you get heavy going at some of the gaff tracks where it could be maximum distance in 3 or 4 of the 6/7 race card...
Again, probably already factored into the prices

indeed it is...do you know many that gotten wealthy betting on distances reg?
Report Regbutler April 19, 2021 10:29 PM BST
No, not on a regular basis, obviously a few ricks by the bookies now and then
Report Regbutler April 19, 2021 10:32 PM BST
The good thing is... The bookies have to price up all markets
The punters can pick and choose which markets we bet on
