    When down the Bookies and could only find Paddy Power .... the Sun bet was no good as its for Coral so had to put £5 on. !   Street cred .... well they were all looking at me.  Did the Accumulator and because three horses were Fav   put £5 ew on the outsider Politologue.  Thanks Weecheez but can't be asked to walk down there again.

    Blimey Betting Shops have changed since I last went in one, used to have man on chalk board, you put coins in the slot machnes not £50 notes.  That tell's you how old me is.    This could be my first and last venture into horse racing betting.   cheers lads

    I had a quick look to try and find out but couldn't seem to find anything to say yay or nay...

    Does anyone know if Sky do what seems to be the standard these days of guaranteeing to match the best odds?

    As said above they now guarantee best price and they have a really good cheltenham offer of money back if your horse loses in the 1st race everyday at cheltenham.

    Hi Paul,

    Just go to Sky Bet />Horse Racing, & then there are 3 Sidebars, one of which is
    THIS

    It's "Best Odds Guaranteed",  commonly abbreviated to BOG

    Well - if you have any sense none of you will back the same horse I do lol as I only go by the names and jockey colours :)

    Todays 1.30pm I've back Outlander - so I'm practically guaranteeing that he'll be a donkey.

    Good luck all

    Wiiiiiii. - got £10 back for the first race as my horse didn't win - so I put a £5 each way bet on a horse called Bobs Worth - he came 3rd so I'm very happy - I don't understand how but I've received £107 for the £5 each way?  Any one out there who can explain how it works please?  Think he was 33/1

    ***Edit- looks like I actually bet £10 free bet plus £10 real money on him without realising - won £105 I think as that's what receipt says
