    Does anybody know of a way to place bets on point to point races, besides being at the track on the day.
    I live in dublin, but would like to be able to back horses in the munster point to points, but not having much success

    I have never heard of off-course PTP markets.

    PTP markets tend to be the most uncompetitive anyway. Overrounds of 170%+ and even 200%+ are not uncommon.

    Its mostly for fun, our first horse was running today. and i wanted to stick a tenner on him for fun. I tried to get a price on him in the 3 or so bookies in the village here but no joy

    Ive never heard of off course betting for p-p. not even betting on other p-p courses on the same day. I guess it leaves the bookies too open to get screwed on something
