Introducing The Tote
The SharpBetting School

The Tote has a long and storied history in racing, but most punters might not be aware of the new and improved tote that is one of the best punting offerings around. Bigger payouts, better value, and more excitement. In this introduction, we highlight some of the concepts that make the tote product unique, and an essential part of the SharpBetting toolbox.

Having already boosted the odds for selections featured in David's Daily football previews and the SharpBetting boxing content, here are some other reasons why you should bet with the Tote...

Newmarket Racing, Saturday 3 May 2025

For Newmarket on Saturday, our friends at the TOTE are running a Money-Back-Second-Promotion for every win pool. You will get a REFUND UP TO £10 should your bet finish second. The offer applies to the first bet struck in Newmarket win pools for Saturday's racing.

World Pool 2025

  1. World Pool was created by Hong Kong Jockey Club and brings together racing fans from over 20 nations, so everyone is effectively betting into one pool creating huge liquidity. It’s like the EuroMillions version of the lottery. Pools punters have never had it so good.
  2. Money back if you finish 2nd will be an offer for every UK and Irish World Pool race in 2025

  5. The pool betting model means the Tote is agnostic about results so welcomes winning customers.
  6. The international nature of World Pool means there is some great value to be found across markets based on betting patterns in other countries often creating enhanced prices.
  7. At Royal Ascot last year, Rashabar in the Coventry Stakes was the biggest overpay of the week for Tote customers returning 129.9 vs 80/1 SP.
  8. There will be over 22 World Pool days featuring over 150 races in Britain and Ireland in 2025, including 2000 Guineas Day, Lockinge Day, Irish2000 Guineas Day, Derby Day and many more.

SINGLE LEG BETS MULTI LEG BETS

Pool providers across the world use varying place terms to determine what qualifies as a winning bet, differing depending on how many horses are in a race.

For World Pool races we have an agreed set of place terms that apply across all countries, which may differ from the terms you’re used to with Tote:

  • A race with 7 – 20 declared runners will pay out 3 places regardless of whether it is a handicap
  • A race with 21 or more declared runners will pay out 4 places regardless of whether it is a handicap or not.
  • If a field size drops from 7 or more declared runners to 4 actual runners, then the Place pool will be void and all bets will be refunded.
  • If a field size drops from 5 or 6 declared runners to 3 actual runners, then the Place pool will be void and all bets will be refunded.
