    Lads,

    I have a €100 free bet that i can place with ladbrokes on a horse in any race, any suggestions for a horse to turn this into actual money, i know there's no gaurentees in racing but is there any horse running in the next week or so that would be well fancied that i could stick this bet on?

    Thanks in Advance

    When I get something like this I always go for a big priced horse who I think has a chance.


    I'd go for Solicitor in the 4.40 at Pontrefact tomorrow.
    Looks very well handicapped and back to a trip after not staying further.

    One big thing for me: He's entered in the horse in training sale next week. Look through some horses entered in it,the owners want them to run as best as they can before the sales so they'd get a higher price. 10/1 with Bet365 atm

    i would rather see the cash - new zeland in the rugby

    sry didnt see the horse bit - i would ante post on Gran Crus in the world hurdle, will improve again this year and you will get a great price for a 2 horse race

    Free bets have to be on bets of over evens and the stake isn't returned

    Just had another look.

    The horse runs in a class 5 tomorrow. Last time it ran in a class 5 it won off a mark of 75. Rated 74 now,it's also the last time it ran over 10 furlongs

    @UrbanSea Cheers mate, Do you know if you can back the horse each way using the €100 free bet?

    The only free bets I've ever come across are win singles.

    I'd imagine so yes.

    I would ante post Grand Crus 9/1 pp - you will then have intrest in the preceding races, you would be hoping Big Bucks declines this year which is a possibility
