If you put an each way bet on the QM Champion Chase....it currently says 3 places.

As this race may , and often does , cuts up and only 6 or 7 run scared of by the big two.....would the above antepost bet still pay 3 places?

Haven't bet,antepost for years but pretty certain you'd still be on 1st 3, remember they'd still keep the stakes on the NRs.
Report swiftynifty January 24, 2022 1:28 PM GMT
you get the each way terms at the time of your bet, regardless of how many runners on the day, always nice to get 5 places and only 5 runners.

The bet I have is an each way double , the first leg won(at a very tasty price) , it is not nrnb.
Report penzance January 24, 2022 2:44 PM GMT
if there's less than 8rnrs on the 2nd leg,
you'll still get paid on 3rd place,Anti Post.

And the second leg is?
Report FOYLESWAR January 24, 2022 6:01 PM GMT
yes you should get paid 3 places 626, on line you will get  paid 3  places no problem ,if the bet is with shops and there are 7 runners or less you may have problems when you go to collect  ,their tills seem to have problems understanding the terms . a few years back i had a mlti ante post acca 2 winner and 2 places one leg was the champion chase 7 runners  3rd place and when i went to collect the computer in the tills said the bet was a loser 7 runners 2 places . after several phone calls from shop to head office i got paid .

Thank you foylesy...hoping it wins for kerching, but 3rd will do for a nice return.

I read that some firms have closed this 'loophole' on AP races likely to cut up, worth checking the small print before playing.

Definitely had problems in betting shops with each way ante post bets,

ALWAYS Write the ew terms on your slip when putting the bet on!

Definitely don't do this yourself. Make sure THEY write the terms on the slip not you.

How do you post a bet... I have no idea how you put anything other than text on here.

Don't know why ante post still causes confusion ......

Punters can't have it both way so if their horse is pulled out they do their dough

Bookies can't have it both ways so they pay odds and place terms as and when the bet is placed and can't apply any rule 4.

Variance to above is a NRNB concession , then punters can't lose if pulled out as bookies stand that concession to attract business.

On the third point though the downside is the % over round , it can sometimes look like a telephone number.

Plenty of examples over the years of great value e/way ante post , no more so than the Arkle vs Mill House days when every other runner was virtually a rag and more than one example of 3 places paid in a 4 horse race , bookies not so sharp in those days but then again nor were the punters.

Negative move that has creeped into the modern era is bookmakers inserting a caveat say a week before stating that if less than 8 runners then place terms become 2 places at 1/4 odds , bad show that in my view as bookies should either offer ante post terms as we know them or else don't offer an ante post price at all.

I wouldn't be so sure about that especially on course.
Report Hayden January 25, 2022 8:04 PM GMT
Yes i'll stand corrected on that Sparrow , instead of sharp maybe mean or accountants would have been a more accurate description.

Maybe stand corrected on punters too as sharp minds not too evident these days , if as we're led to believe 98% of punters historically lose money then they couldn't have read the Einstein definition of insanity.


Good punting.

Cotswold Chse 8 rnrs atm,E/W 2Plcs 1/4.
Obviously could cut up as only takes
a single n/r.Should'nt be betting with those
terms if classed as A/P,wait 'till the the
final decs.
Report layingisthewayforward January 25, 2022 10:41 PM GMT
I was joking sixtwosix.

I would say good luck with Nubra Negra but that depends on whether i back anything else in the race, then you can have all the bad luck in the world.
