What is a Placepot?

To win the placepot you need to pick a horse to place in the first six races at any UK, Irish or selected International meeting.

The average pay-out has been £441 for a £1 stake in the last year. This makes it a great way to gain substantial profit with minimal stake. You can play the placepot here from 4pm the day before all UK and Irish meetings. Click one of the banner links in this article to get involved.

2 – 4 runners 1st

5 – 7 runners 1st & 2nd

8 – 15 runners 1st, 2nd & 3rd

Terms and Conditions

Aim of the bet

• To select a horse to be placed in each of the nominated races. The standard Tote Placepot will typically involve the first six races of each meeting and the Tote Placepot 7 and ITV7 Placepot will involve selected races across various meetings each day.

Meetings on which pool is operated

• The standard Tote Placepot on the first six races at a meeting is operated on all British meetings and selected overseas meetings unless otherwise stated.
• Cross-meeting placepots may also be made available. These placepots follow the same rules as the standard placepot, but the races may be selected from more than one race meeting, and the number of legs in the bet may exceed 6.
• When a placepot has more than six legs, as is the case with the Placepot 7 and ITV7 Placepot, to win the bet the player must select a placed horse in every leg.
