  • Max £10 for the first race money back offer each day

    Comment


    • That’s annoying. Oh well. Notice they’ve shortened a lot of horses a point or so as well in the supreme

          Yeah thought that, crying shame. Have to acknowledge though that expecting 4 horses to turn up is probably only slightly odds on 4 weeks out, so have to factor that into these RABs. That was still good one though

              Sucks, but I heard some wild figures for what the offer cost them last year. Always thought it makes sense cos it's a way of keeping the money in your ecosystem, but obviously the hit was too big

              • Sky have effectively removed their free bet offers (other than the weekly fivers) in the past year, says something when they'd rather give you money back cash than a free bet.
                I used to nick free bets wherever I saw them with Sky to build a decent Cheltenham portfolio, there were plenty of £50 free bet offers going back 12-18 months which became very useful.

                My only other account is betway, they throw out 3/4 free bets a weeks each to a max £200, and the runner up on all TV races (plus selected weekday meetings) you can end up with a serious free bet balance...

                  • How can you tell / where does it say what the maximum bet is?

                      They followed this format last year - others to follow closer to the time.

                        • Annoying how they slash the odds at the same time but to be expected.

                          Definitely waiting until closer the time to use mine.

                            Click on the Supreme market under "future races" & it comes up at the top of the market under "conditions". Says max refund £10/Euros & applies to first bet on race only.

                            • Can understand this to be honest but still disappointing for us punters. Need to tap a few mates up now

                                Doesn't say it for me ... but does have a message about being excluded?
