    I have never laid a bet so i need some advice.

    With a bet i have ill win 303 and i want to lay it for as much as i can gain profit.

    The bet is 3.3 to lay now and i have typed in 130 with the liability as 299.

    If i lay this and put 299 into my account will this be right to guarantee 120 if the horse loses or is a NR?

    I appreciate the answers

    Yes, if the horse loses or NR you get 130e (- initial bet i presume is 10e). Happy Days!!!!

    By the way you don't have to put the 299e liability in your account if you placed the bet on the same exchange market that you're laying. It will just green you up. :D

    Note: if the horse does win you only get back 4e :(

    I'll need the original back price and stake to calculate it.

    Are both bets on the same exchange or was the back bet with a bookie?

    25/1 - 5 win bet
    20/1 - 2.50ew
    7/1 - 10ew

    I wouldnt risk high antepost you see hence low stakes.

    I havent laid yet anyway but i got word that Min actually fell schooling and has had stiches and he may well be fine but was thinking of just laying off. Ok if i left it i would lose 30 stake which is not a problem but have a feeling after faugheen that this may come more to light in a few weeks then id be annoyed i didnt hmmm.

    Sorry if i sound daft

    Tough decision for sure. If i was you i'd just lay off the initial 30e bet and have a free bet riding. Maybe somebody else would have a better solution. Good luck either way.

    Don't mean to pry but where did you hear about the stitches? Don't worry if you can't say.
