Extra places on horse racing at William Hill

Many of the big name bookies offer enhanced place specials these days, but William Hill goes above and beyond with one of the best extra place offers out there.

Every month William Hill add extra places to a number of high profile races. These offers can knock the opposition out the park, with William Hill sometimes doubling the number of places paid in a race.

How William Hill extra places on horse racing works

William Hill’s extra places on horse racing offer will automatically pay out extra places on your place and each-way bets on qualifying races.

You could paid out anywhere between one extra place and double the standard number of places for the race depending on the race and offer in question.

Extra places will typically be paid out at slightly lower odds than the industry standard. For example you may get 1/5 odds on a place rather than the typical 1/4 odds.

However, this is compensated for by the extra chances you’ll have to cash in on your place and each-way bets.

All you need to do to benefit from William Hill’s enhanced place terms is look out for banners on the William Hill website advertising when a qualifying race is coming up.
