Australian Horse Racing Betting
When it comes to Horse Racing betting, Australia is 100% one of the top countries for racing around the world. The highlight? The Everest! A six furlong sprint race with a purse of $15m, this race was at one point in time, the world's richest race. So whether you're looking for the biggest races at the Royal Randwick, Caulfield Racecourse or Belmont Park, you'll be able to place all your horse racing bets on Australian racing at BetUK.
Australian racing is very similar to the flat season here in the United Kingdom, think of Royal Ascot or July racing at Newmarket.
Bet on Australia's Biggest Horse Races
When it comes to Australian Horse Racing, it doesn't get any bigger than the Everest but there are a number of meetings that come close, for example, the Melbourne Cup, which is held at Flemington Racecourse. This is arguably Australia's most famous race and despite not matching the purse of the Everest, there is still a whopping 5 million dollars at stake. You may find with some of the bigger events in Australian Horse Racing that the betting odds fluctuate more than a standard event, this is due to the sheer number of racing bets placed at Horse Racing bookmakers. Racing odds are heavily influenced by bettors, for example, if hundreds of people back a 50/1 horse in a short period, the odds of that horse will significantly decline.
When it comes to international racing, Australia hosts a large number of fantastic races, including:
- Melbourne Cup
- W.S Cox Plate
- Caulfield Cup
- The Golden Slipper Stakes
- Queen Elizabeth Stakes
- Victoria Derby
- All-Star Mile
