The two parts of an each-way stake

The stake entered for an each-way bet is commonly split between the win and place parts. A displayed total stake may therefore be twice the single stake amount. Confirm how the bet slip describes the total stake before placing it.

Place terms matter

Place terms state how many finishing positions qualify and what fraction of the win odds applies to the place part. Terms may depend on the race type, field size and any specific promotion. Read the terms attached to the actual market; do not assume one race's terms apply to another.

Finding each-way information

The racecard and bet slip should show whether each-way betting is available and the applicable terms. For BAR 1, check the current race market and its displayed rules before selecting a runner.
