New from Paddy Power - InsureBet

Paddy Power also have an innovative form of betting called "InsureBet", where the odds for a horse are slightly lower than normal, but you will get your money back if the horse finishes second (or even third in some races).

Example:

  1. Best Mate
  2. Your Horse
  3. Kauto Star

If you used InsureBet on the above example you would still win, however if you didn't, you'd lose your money.
