How dead-heat betting works

When runners tie, the relevant stake is divided by the number of tied horses. A place stake is also reduced to the proportion of the places covered.

Questions people ask

Does a dead heat reduce my whole stake?

The affected winning or place part is divided between the tied runners; the calculator shows the returned stake and profit separately.

Can I use each-way bets?

Yes. Select Each way to calculate the win and place parts independently.
