The ITV Racing action continues on Saturday with some excellent Group racing from Newbury and the Ayr Gold Cup from Ayr. We have two nice offers to exploit from Paddy Power and SkyBet.
Paddy Power is offering money back if your horse finishes 2nd, 3rd or 4th in the 2-15pm at Newbury, while SkyBet is offering money back up to £10 if your horse finishes 2nd on the 1-40pm at Newbury.
We’re going to give you an example that can be applied to either bookmaker, you just have to change the horse and odds depending on what way you want to play it. You can do both, why not!
Key Terms;
- Max refund is £10, paid as a free bet with Paddy Power and as cash with SkyBet

That’s all you need to get started, it’s simple! Let’s go through the steps so you can get the most money.
Step 1 – Place our qualifying bet:
Use the Profit Rush Price Matcher and find the closest match. Liquidity will be excellent on Saturday on races live on ITV Racing, but we have a competitive handicap for the 2-15pm at Newbury and also a competitive Group 3 in the 1-40pm, so we’re going to allow for this with our selected odds. It won’t be difficult to get matched given it’s a £10 offer and not £50 or more.
Our target match for this race will be a horse towards the head of the market that isn’t a big favourite. Something which is trading 5.5 or so with Paddy Power or SkyBet, and we’re going to lay 6.0 on Betfair. If the field is smaller, just reduce the odds. The third or fourth favourite is usually ideal to place without winning for these type of offers. Remember, we need the selection to finish 2nd, 3rd or 4th rather than win!
For Step 1, we place a £10 bet on our selected horse at 5.5 with Paddy Power.
Step 2 – Lay off on the exchanges:
Now that we’ve placed our qualifying bet with Paddy Power or SkyBet, we need to lay off on the exchanges. We’ve opted for a horse trading 5.5, so we’re going to lay it at 6.0 on Betfair. We put this information into the Profit Rush Bet Calculator. You should see a screen like this:
As you can see, the cost to set up this bet is -£1.00. You need to lay the horse for £9.20 at odds of 6.0 on Betfair. Usually we could find a closer match on English racing and in fairness you probably will On Saturday however as this is an example to apply to both bookmakers, we thought we’d push the lay price out a little. The set up cost is still £1 which is OK, you could probably do better. Now after that’s done, let’s look at our outcomes…
| Outcome | Bookmaker | Exchange | Profit & Loss |
| If your horse Wins | £45 | -£46 | -£1 |
| If your horse finishes 2nd, 3rd or 4th (or 5th) | Cashback | £9.02 | £9.02 |
| If your horse doesn’t finish 1st, 2nd, 3rd or 4th (or 5th) | -£10 | £9.02 | -£0.98 |
What a brilliant position. You’re effectively getting odds of 10.02 on your selection finishing 2nd, 3rd or 4th! That’s a very nice price and it only costs you -£1! You can see what a profitable offer this is long-term.
