    Most of the bookies have coupons where you mark 1 for a home win X for a draw and 2 for an away win.

    You can do it the way you said aswell

    If you are unsure ask in the shop when placing the bet. They probably won't bite :)

    The more information you put on the slip the better (such as the event) as for instance there are still a number of horses in training called 'Liverpool'. It will still more than likely be validated onto the correct even by the bookie agent when they are going through the system.

    It never ceases to amaze me why some people would put minimal information on a betting slip. The idea is to make it as easy as possible for the bookie agent to validate it onto the correct event so you can get your money should it be successful, the last thing you want is hassle trying to explain what your selection was, after all it take a few second to write the event down.
