How to Bet on the Mares' Chase

  1. Futures

    Futures

    As one of the 28 races at Cheltenham Festival, the Mares' Chase odds are available on the futures market in the months leading up to the race. Betting sites open up futures or ante-post betting markets mere moments after the previous iteration of the race has finished.

    Wagering well ahead of time may result in bettors securing excellent value. However, depending on a runner's previous performances and betting patterns, the odds may shorten in the lead-up to the race.

    Bettors can reduce the risk of placing early bets on the Mares' Chase via non-runner no bet (NRNB). This promotion voids the bet if your chosen horse does not run in the Mares' Chase. Always check before placing your wager for this promotion.

  2. Win

    This is a simple wager on which horse you think will win the Mares' Chase. If your horse wins the Mares' Chase, you'll receive a payout.

  3. Place

    Place

    Place bets on the Mares' Chase will offer smaller returns than a to win wager, but there's a greater likelihood that the bet is successful.

    Bettors only need their horse to finish first, second, or third. Your selection does not have to win the race for your wager to succeed. The top three places usually guarantee a payout, although this can change depending on the number of runners.

  4. Each-Way

    Each-Way

    Each-way bets give bettors two chances to get a payout. Your stake is split in half, placing one half on the outright win and the other on the place market. If your horse fails to win but places, you'll receive a payout at a fraction of the outright odds (usually 1/5).
