What is an Each Way Bet?

An each way bet consists of two equal bets: one for the selection to win and one for it to place (finish in the top positions). Your total stake is doubled — e.g., $5 each way costs $10 total.

Place Terms

  • 1/5 odds — typically for handicap races with 16+ runners
  • 1/4 odds — most common, 5-7 runner races
  • 1/3 odds — used in some markets
  • 1/2 odds — used in some special markets

Example

$5 each way at 10/1 with 1/4 odds place terms:

  • Win part: $5 × 11.00 = $55.00
  • Place part: $5 × 3.50 = $17.50
  • Total return if wins: $72.50 | If places only: $17.50
