The calvary charge for glory in last year’s Hollywoodbets Durban July (Candiese Lenferna Photography).
The Hollywoodbets ante-post betting which is available for the Hollywoodbets Durban July, despite the first nomnations not having been made, now includes place betting too.
It is generous place betting too, because it is for the first five and the odds appear to be about 21% of the win odds.
The place betting will enable punters to build up a big July betting book with the chance of collecting handsomely on five of the runners on the day.
For some this makes the race much more eagerly anticipated than arriving with the possibility of collecting only on the winner.
It does also provide some potential insurance cover for those who are confident of a horse’s chance, especially if they predict the horse will shorten as the race draws near.
