Sportsbook Horse Racing

Sportsbook.com was founded in 1996 and is much more than just a sports book. Their horse racing section provides a few valuable tools, including a “profitable angles” page that lists the horses racing for the given day and their average return of investment. This includes many different combinations such as the horse’s record after a win, the horse’s record after a layoff, and the trainer’s and jockey’s records. There are even included some more obscure betting angles such as first start with new trainer and switches from turf to dirt. While you may not find all of these tools to be particularly relevant, it is better to have an abundance of information rather than too little. Sportsbook will provide that abundance for you.

Like a few other online books, Sportsbook.com offers great rebate and bonus programs. Within their horse racing section they offer an 8 percent rebate on exotic bets, and a 3 percent rebate on the traditional WPS bets. This is done on a daily basis and is based off of the wagers made from the previous day. With the commission and taxes at some tracks ranging upwards of 15 to 20 percent, this little bit will help you to preserve your bankroll. Sportsbook offers wagering on over 70 tracks and will pay off up to the full amount on WPS bets, while their maximum for exotics fluctuates depending on the track and the wager.

Withdrawals from your Sportsbook account are a bit complicated, but in keeping within keeping of industry standards. This is called the “Know Your Customer” policy and is an effort to reduce money laundering. You must provide a government issued ID and a proof of address, such as a utility bill before you will be entitled to your winnings.

If you want more action than just horse racing, Sportsbook.com is a great resource. They offer a full online casino, a poker room, and a sports betting area. Additionally, they have a great customer service program that you can contact via phone or email.
