    Hey just thought i would start a thread to keep track of specials for the festival.
    1. Sky bet doing max €20 cash back on any loser on 1.30 race each day
    2. PP doing money back as free bet on day 1 if 2nd 3rd or 4th min 7 runners or its 2nd only

    Sky bet one is easily the best. Anyone not using that wants locking up. €20 is easily enough for my normal bet


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 539 ✭✭✭Charlie George


    Pp is online only I think.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 4,757 ✭✭✭The Rooster


    I don’t have access to online specials, but if anyone knows of shop specials, it would be great if you could put them up here too


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 635 ✭✭✭pugw


    The skybet one is for one of the 1.30 races ... as in if you put a 20 on in each race you’ll only get the special back for one of them

    I think it’s worded clever ... I contacted them and they said it applies to the first 1.30 race you back. I’d double check before you have a go!

    Nearly sure it's everyday as they have did this the last couple of years?

    I see Bet365 are going max 25 free bet on the championship race each day once you place 25 bet on any other race that day for each day. Bets to be placed after 1 on Monday.

    10er max for me

    Will people please stop putting false information up here when they don’t have a clue what their talking about. The skybet special offer is easy to understand its €20 back as cash on your first bet on the first race on all 4 days.

    It’s not worded clever at all, you just don’t have a clue and are posting nonsense.

    No all your doing is confusing people and putting them off what’s a great offer. It’s a fairly simple offer to understand.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,022 ✭✭✭madmoose


    Last year it was 20 per first race each day but a free bet was returned. It will be the same again but cash back.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 5,681 ✭✭✭BumperD


    Got that b365 offer too. I’ll be maxing that for certain, free money.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 162 ✭✭madmax72

    Terms of the Skybet offer are up now and looks like you'll only get the 20 back once.

    It’s not, it says each day. You’ll only get your stake back on your first bet on each race

    The first bet only is your first bet on that race, otherwise you could be backing every horse in the race

    I don’t think that’s the problem, the problem is most don’t understand them.

    It’s like and this a true story, football coupons say 90 minute betting only as sometimes games can go to extra time. I overheard a customer trying to claim he had won his bet cause some team scored in the 4th minute of injury time so it shouldn’t count. And he was adamant his bet was a winner, I do feel for betting shop staff at times.

    1. This promotion is available to individuals aged 18 years and over who have registered as customers of Sky Bet.
    2. This offer only applies to your FIRST CASH BET on a horse that runs in the 13.30 Cheltenham (“qualifying bet”). Subsequent bets will not receive a cash refund and will be settled under the normal Sky Bet terms and conditions.
    3. In the event that your first bet is a Non-Runner this offer will apply to your next bet on the 13.30 Cheltenham ("qualifying event").
    4. Bets must be placed between 08:00 Friday 22nd February 2019 and 13.30 Friday 15th March 2019.
    5. If more than one bet is placed at the same time in one betslip, the offer applies to the bet with the lowest bet receipt number. This can be found in the My Bets section.
    6. Refunds will be credited in equal amount to the value of the customer's stakes on qualifying (1) losing singles; or (2) the losing “win” part of each way bets, up to a maximum of £/€20.
    7. Bets placed with free bet stakes do not count towards this offer
    8. Multiple bets do not count towards this offer.
    9. Only bets placed on the main race market count. Bets placed on additional markets such as Price Boosts, Tote bets, Pari-Mutuels, Forecasts, Tricasts, Distance Bets, Unnamed Favourite, Unnamed Second Favourite or Derived Markets (e.g Place Only Betting, Faller Insurance and Match Bets) will not qualify.
    10. Max refund per customer / household / IP address / email address is £/€20.
    11. Dead Heat rules apply and can be viewed here.
    12. Cashed out Qualifying Bets will not qualify for this offer.
    13. If fewer than five runners come under starters orders, Sky Bet reserves the right to withdraw the offer without prior notice. Though where reasonably possible and where time permits prior to the race start we will attempt to provide prior notice.
    14. Refunds will be credited within 24 hours of the completion of the race.

    17. All other Sky Bet general terms and conditions apply.
    18. Sky Betting and Gaming General Promotion Terms apply to this promotion and can be viewed here.


    Full terms above. The two items bolded are the ones of interest as they can reasonably be taken to mean you get only one refund to a max of 20 and this lines up with what a previous poster said when they contacted them. I of course hope it's on all of them but it is worded interestingly.

    Money back as cash on the first race everyday. That’s very clear to me

    I didn't notice that first time. The legal terms don't make it as clear so was just wary as they are bookies after all :D

    Best offer on the champion hurdle? Going to have an e/w on Sharjah.

    A lot of hard luck stories!

    That fall wasn’t Ruby’s fault at all no matter how much of a ******* he is

    Don’t know enough about jockeying to say myself, but I thought McCoys immediate after race comment of, if Ruby had his time over he’d do it differently (or something along those lines), seemed to be pointing the finger as much as any of the ex-jockeys ever do.

    Haven’t seen a replay of Buveuir Dair’s fall, but I wonder should Geraghty shoulder any of the blame?

    In saying that, I wouldn’t class either of the above as particularly unlucky. Part of the job is jumping the hurdles after all!
    The two most unlucky were Kalashnikov and Sharjah, who came down through absolutely no fault of jockey or horse

    Nope.
    Shop deal yesterday was money back if 2nd/3rd/4th in a Cheltenham race if fav won (max €20).
    Online deal was the same, except didnt have to be won by the fav, and limited to €10


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 4,757 ✭✭✭The Rooster


    PP shop has MB as FB if Altior wins the 3.30. Max €20 (win bets or win part of EW bets).
    No other MB offers.

    Ladbrokes shop has MB as free bet (max 20) if 2nd to a favourite in Cheltenham, which is running all week apparently.

    Both PP and Ladbrokes shops doing BOG for multiples this week (which is usually only available online)


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 4,518 ✭✭✭tinpib


    Bit late as only seeing this thread now. But Betway have money back if your horse loses up to a max of €10 in both the first and the last race of each day.

    Ladbrokes had a free €1 bet online 'each day', I got it yesterday and today but maybe I have to wait until tomorrow to get the next one as it isn't showing.

    You might scoff at a free €1 bet but I'll take it!

    As pointed out earlier the Skybet, Bruce Betting and Bet365 bets are great. Free money.
