Just stop and think about some of the most exhilarating moments in sport. You can certainly call on a lot from the world of horse racing. That gut-turning anticipation at the start of the Grand National where the huge field is jostling at the start tape just waiting to get out onto the course. The thundering action up the hill at the Cheltenham Gold Cup and so much more.
The quest for the Triple Crown in the USA. Horse racing is one of the oldest sports in the world and it is also one that has always had an association with betting, well before online betting was even a thing. If you look back at the old days if you saw someone going into a high street bookie then you wouldn’t be wrong in thinking that they were likely going to slap down some cash on a racing selection.
World Wide Coverage
Horse racing now, thanks to modern technology has been opened up to the whole wide world. There is such fantastic coverage in horse racing betting with Marathonbet not only from the UK and Ireland but from across the world from places like the USA and Australia. The betting world of horse racing has become a lot smaller thanks to the internet and this perhaps is one of the best aspects of it all. It means that you can pretty much jump onto the Marathonbet website at any time and find some racing action from somewhere in the world. Even if on the off chance there wasn’t anything happening then can enjoy virtually.
Virtual Racing
Marathonbet runs virtual racing which has its dedicated section and that can be massively entertaining. You will see the virtual running of a race and you can bet while the action is on-going as well. You get updated position of the race as it is going and just as in real action, there are stats like horse form and info to have a look at. Betting options on virtual races include backing the winner, laying the winner, a place, laying a place along with forecast and tricast.
Betting Options
Turning attention back to the real horse racing betting with Marathonbet, you have the option of looking at futures racing and jump on an SP. Throw your selections onto the betting slip and there you have some good management when it comes to either just backing your selections as singles, or taking things a bit further with some accumulators or multiples.
If you are looking beyond the singles, then you just have to switch between the Acca or Multiple options in the betting slip and play with what you have put in there. You can drop selections down to make a double or a treble, or go full-tilt at more legs in an accumulator. The same if you were looking at Multiples, it is just a matter of putting in your selection of bets and choosing if want to activate the e/w option. You will see your stake and potential returns updated (unless of course, it is just SP selections).
Bonuses
There are a couple of bonuses that need to be addressed for horse racing betting at Marathonbet. First is the Best Odds Guaranteed option which they will run on certain horse races. So if you have gone for an early price and their SP ends up being bigger, guess what, you won’t get short-changed as you will be paid out at the bigger SP price (if of course, your bet wins). This applies to both win and places single and multiple bets. So look out for it.
The other horse racing promotion that is well worth a mention at Marathonbet is the Double Result (First Past the Post) which is where they will pay out a winning horse that has been disqualified, as well as the horse that can home second and was therefore promoted as the new official winner. On top of all that they will pay double the odds for one winner for all Lucky bets (Lucky 15, 31 & 63) on horse racing. So there are some great ways to gain some extra value from your horse racing betting at Marathonbet.
Summary
In summary, the coverage of horse racing at Marathonbet is very good. Despite the fact that there is great coverage around it is still really super simple to browse around the racing section of the sportsbook and find those markets that you want. That just speaks volumes to the organisation of it all. Get in the saddle and go for a great horse racing betting experience at Marathonbet.
