    Paddy Power is great for the average punter. Good money back offers and the site is very easy to use.

    Betfair if you're interested in laying horses.

    Lots of people will recommend Bet365. I don't use them after I had a right cow on live help get smart with me.

    I just set up a Paddy Power account. They say they give you free €50 bet.
    Now to pick a winner. :D
    Today's racing won't have too many short priced horses. But a winner could have good odds. Only the one needed.

    Careful. They will match whatever your first bet is up to 50 quid. If you bet a tenner you'll only get a tenner

    I'd have to say Bet365 hands down. They pay out the quickest, usually have the best odds and everything just works so simply.
    I've had great experiences with them on the phone too.
    The only firm I've been 100% happy with.

    I have a Powers account and to be honest I've barely used it this week. Practically every brace I check on Oddschecker Powers have far and away the worst prices and are least likely to have better each way odds for the punter. Stan James are going up a lot in my estimation with their prices.

    Keep opening accounts with different places to get free bets.

    Bet with whoever has the best price.

    Show no allegiance to any of them.

    Exactly. Oddschecker.com should be your best friend. Just back with whoever has the best odds on your chosen selection.

    Cheers lads,
    but Id say multiple accounts will have admin charges etc...too much hassle. Ill stick with this one for the moment. Hard to pick out a winner today.
