🎯 Each way strategy Live
One fixed rule that picks about five horses a day, every one backed £1 each way. Tested on three years of races, tracked live in public.
Today's selections 6
0 of 2 placed so far. £1 each way on each. At the odds shown or better, with a bookmaker paying at least the places shown.
Subscribers see every selection at 08:00 with the bookmaker, odds, each way terms, plus every race rated and our best bets. £10 a month, cancel any time.
How it works for you
About five selections at 08:00, each with the bookmaker, the price and the each way terms. Also in the 08:30 email.
That is £2 a bet: £1 to win and £1 to place. You get paid on the place part if the horse finishes in the places, and on both if it wins.
Most selections lose. About 41% place, often at 10/1 to 33/1, and those returns more than cover the losers.
A horse is selected when v8's chance of winning and its chance of finishing in the places say the each way bet is worth at least 5% more than it costs, even at a price 15% worse than we show. Up to 33/1. Nobody picks them by hand.

Get on board
- Set aside money just for this strategy. £180 at £1 each way. In testing, the worst losing spell cost £117 before it recovered, so £180 gets you through a spell like that with room to spare. At £5 each way, set aside £900.
- Back every selection, every day, at the same stake. At the odds shown or better, with a bookmaker paying at least the places shown. No skipping the ones you don't fancy and no doubling up after a loss: the record only holds if every bet is in it.
- Judge it by the month, not the day. In testing 28 of 36 months were up, and losing runs of 20 bets happened. Quiet days are part of it.

Worth knowing
- Prices move. We show the 07:55 price and terms. If a price has shortened a lot, the bet may no longer be worth it.
- Bookmakers may restrict accounts that win regularly each way. Spreading bets across bookmakers helps.
- Past results do not guarantee future ones. Only bet what you can afford to lose. 18+. BeGambleAware.org
