Hi

Is Betangel Horseracing Place market for 2 or 3 places?
Can i change this to be set for 3 places always?

In betfair you can choose to bet on place 2,3,4 but in betangel there is just one option.... or am i missing something here?

You dont get to set the places on either BA or Betfair, the number of places are determined by the number of runners, the more runners the more places paid out

On betfair you can bet on 2 to be placed or 3 be placed, sometimes 4 or 5... and you only have one option in BA... right? I just took a 3 place bet in a 6 horse race, 16:45 Newton Abbot but its nowhere to be seen in BA..

Edit:
For ex; 17:15 Newton Abbot...
Where do i find "5 to be placed" on BA for this race? If i take the (place) on BA, is it for 2,3,4 or 5 horses?

I know what you mean now, select the markets this way
Top left of page "File"
Select market
Under "select" tab (dont use quick picks tab)
Select horse racing
Then UK
Then Newton Abbot
Then 5 TBP

If you bet through the normal BA place market this race is for 4 runners you can have 5 by choosing the seperate market as shown above where the odds are slighly less for each runner for the extra place.

Morning,

Just a clarification please. (Horse Racing Place Market)

In BA, the "PLACE" market follows normal betting rules

4< runners <8 2places
8<= runners <16 3places etc

When non runners are declared
Eg 8 runner field, 1 non runner, so 7 selections.

Does the "Place" filter adjust to 2 places or is it still the odds
for 3 places?

The reason I ask is I have set up an automation that uses the
Place market. I need the example above to give odds for 2 places.

Do I now need to manually choose the 2 Place market
after the non runner is declared or is the Place market automatically
adjusted?

Thanks for any help.

Ps I've tried to check the odds to find out but they don't seem to match up.
