    If you go for an each way(e/w) bet you are making two bets one that the horse will win and one that the horse will place in this case either 2,3,4 or 5. If your horse places the odds are divided by 4 in this case so for example a €5 e/w bet on a 100/1 horse will cost €10 if the horse comes in 2,3,4 or 5 you will win €130 if the horse wins the race you will win €635 in total, hope this helps.

    I think the ones that run on without a rider should get a prize if they win :)

    The one that went a bit ballistic and went through the fence should definitely get one.

    That's funny - I just won about €12, since I picked 3rd-placed Double Seven out of the hat in the office. :cool:

    From out there on the moon, international politics look so petty. You want to grab a politician by the scruff of the neck and drag him a quarter of a million miles out and say, ‘Look at that, you son of a bitch’.
