  • Horse Racing Live Streaming
  • Horse Racing Tote Guarantee

Odds

The first thing to note is that the Tote ONLY offers Tote pool betting in the daily horse racing markets. For those unfamiliar with the concept, pool betting gathers all stakes for a specific event into a “pool”. At the end of the event, this pool is divided amongst the winners. As such, you only find out your return after the event. This contrasts with fixed odds betting, where you take a price when you place your bet. However, Tote pool odds regularly outperform fixed odds returns, and a guide beside each runner gives you a rough idea of what to expect.

The sports betting area follows a traditional fixed odds system and will be immediately familiar to most online punters. The odds on offer are fair without really standing out from the crowd. Taking a midweek Champions League fixture list as an example, there were few outright best prices, but an average margin of around 5% is broadly in line with many competitors.

New Player Offer

We love a Bet and Get Sign Up Deal here at newbettingoffers.co.uk, and the Tote offers one of the best around. A £5 bet is all it takes to earn £20 in Bonuses. Happily, this promotion is quick and easy to take advantage of. Simply:

New customers online only. Register and bet a min £/€5 at odds of 1/1 (2.0) or greater across sports or racing within 7 days of registration to qualify. Receive £/€10 Tote Credit, £/€10 Free Sports Bet within 48 hours of qualifying bet settlement. Qualifying bet is the first racing pool or sports bet added to bet slip. Voided/non-runner bets will not qualify; subsequent bet will be qualifying bet. 7-day expiry. 18+. One per customer. Selected customers only. Full T&Cs apply. Gambleaware.org.Full T&Cs apply.

Regular Offers

On top of the outstanding Welcome Offer, the Tote also provides a range of promotions for existing players. Highlights include:

  • Tote Guarantee - An excellent deal for horse racing fans. If the industry SP beats the Tote Win Dividend, your payout will be boosted to match the SP. Of course, if the Tote Dividend is higher, you will receive this price
  • Champ10ns Spins - Stake £10 on a Champions League fixture to receive 10 Free Spins on a leading slot title
  • Stayers Club - Place six qualifying bets in a week to receive up to £10 in Free Tote Credit

See the Tote website for full details of all promotions.

Markets & Features

The pool-based Horse Racing section has its own tab and offers the full suite of Tote wagers, including Placepot, Quadpot, Jackpot, Scoop6, Exacta, Trifecta, Swinger, Quinella and Win/Place singles.

The dedication to the sport of kings shines through in the high-quality markets, which come complete with racing colours, recent form, and the current Tote Dividends. The results section is one of the best at any online bookmaker, whilst the Tote offers a little more to the racing fan via Tips, Tournaments, Betting Guides, and the hugely popular Ten To Follow competition.

Turning to the Fixed Odds Sports Betting area, the Tote offers odds on a solid 28 sports and events. The most popular UK betting sports of Football, Golf, Boxing, Tennis, and Rugby feature alongside American Football, Ice Hockey, Baseball, Basketball, and many more. Unless you seek something truly obscure, you should find what you need.

Navigating to an individual event reveals a wealth of options. Taking a Premier League football match as an example, you can expect to find over 150 markets available – from the traditional Match Result to Bookings Points Handicaps, Corner Ranges, and more. In comparison, the Bet Builder boasts relatively few options but is at least quick and easy to use.

Many events turn In-Play once underway, and most offer a cash-out and partial cash-out feature.

Finally, it is worth noting that the Tote currently only accepts payments via Visa or Mastercard Debit Card.

Summary

The Tote is highly recommended for horse racing fans. Whilst the lack of fixed odds in this area may put players off, this is more than offset by the excellent offers (particularly the Tote Guarantee), Live Streaming, and regular promotions. The sports area doesn’t stand out quite as much but has more than enough to satisfy the needs of most players. Nicely designed and focussed on its main selling point, the Tote is well worth adding to your online betting portfolio and, for racing fans, may become their go-to site.
