The place in horses is usually the top 3. Not sure on greyhounds.

E/W in greyhounds is generally 2 places, 1st and 2nd.

Depending on the race conditions e.g if its a handicap, number of runners etc or bookies offers e/w terms are generally either 1/4 or 1/5 of the odds quoted.

E.G If a horse is 8/1, it gets placed and the race is e/w 1/4 odds. To work out your return you need to get a quarter of 8/1 which will give you your place odds which in this case would be 2/1 so if you had a euro e/w you would get a return of €3.

If the race was 1/5th of the odds you would get a fifth of the 8/1 to get your place odds.

[QUOTE=ScareGilly;67211235]Didn't see a topic like this...

Betting terms explained sort of thread. i.e

Nap - A tipster's top tip of the day. What they think will be a sure winner.

Exacta - Better must pick the horses who will finish first and second. Must be in the correct order.

Trifecta - Better must pick the horses who will finish first, second and third. Must be in the correct order.

Superfecta - Better must pick the horses who will finish first,second,third and fourth. Must be in the correct order.

Has anyone here ever won on a Superfecta? Almost impossible I would say.
