Each-way and extra-place.
Type the prices yourself.

A cash each-way bet is two equal stakes: one on the win and one on the place. This page works out the lay stakes and the outcomes from numbers you enter. It does not load odds from anywhere.

An each-way stake of 10.00 means £10 on the win and £10 on the place, so the total stake is £20.00. Place odds at 1/5 of win odds 5.00 are 1 + (5.00 − 1) × 1/5 = 1.80. That illustration is not a live offer. Back and lay only? Use the main calculator.

What this result assumes

These figures assume a cash bet, one flat commission rate and lays fully matched at the odds you type. They are illustrative. They do not promise that a bet will be matched, accepted or profitable. Matched betting can lose money.
