6 Horse Challenge
Every Saturday, bet365 runs its 6 Horse Challenge competition. This competition is free for all customers to enter. Simply pick six horses in the races included in the challenge that day, and win cash prizes based on how your horses perform.
Bet Boosts
Bet365 is well known for its range of daily Bet Boosts. Every race, this brand will boost the price of certain horses, as well as boosted prices in the place-only market. On big race days, bet365 will release special bet boosts at 10am, usually boosting the odds of a high-profile market leader.
Each Way Extra
Punters who like backing horses at each way prices will love this feature. Bet365's Each Way Extra special market allows punters to pick how many paid places they want in any given race. The more places you want, the shorter the odds you will receive on that horse.
Special Markets
Along with the standard win and each-way markets and Each Way Extra, bet365 customers can access a range of special markets. These include "Betting Without" markets, "Forecast/Tricast", "Cover Bets", "Not To Win" and more. Users can also access Tote betting from their bet365 accounts.
ITV Racing Price Promise
If you're a fan of ITV Racing and like placing bets on the televised races, then bet365 is the bookmaker for you. This brand promises that their price will not be beaten by any other bookmaker on any British or Irish race shown live on ITV.
Best Odds Guaranteed
Bet365 offers Best Odds Guaranteed (BOG) terms on all UK and Irish horse racing. If your horse wins at odds greater than the ones taken, then you will be paid out at the starting price odds, instead of the price taken. Bet365's BOG terms only apply to bets placed after 8am on the day of the race.
Live Streaming
Once you've placed a bet on any horse race staged in the UK and Ireland (Min stake rules apply), bet365 will provide a stream of that race live via their sportsbook or mobile app. Live Streams can also access for International races with bet365.
