Madina 3,930 Posted April 10, 2010 Share Posted April 10, 2010 A friend and I put on a bet for the national. My pal got 1st and 4th and I was 3rd. I went back to Ladbrokes and the stupid girl there wouldnt tell me how much each person one, she just gave me the combined winnings of £46 (we had £2 each way on each horse). Can anyone tell me how much we each won? Thanks Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wullie! 8 Posted April 10, 2010 Share Posted April 10, 2010 Your pal gets £29 for the winner and £7 for the fourth place. You get £10 for the third. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thought I would have got more than £7 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
bluenose_72 198 Posted April 10, 2010 Share Posted April 10, 2010 You only get 1/4 of the odds for horses that are placed. E.g 16/1 becomes 4/1, so the return is pretty small unless you staked a lot. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
