    best sportbook for betting on UK Horse racing

    Hi, my friends!

    I'm searching for a sportbook where i can back on UK & IRE horse racing without the fear to be limited (professional betting).

    You have some books to suggest?

    Please exclude the follow books: betfair (i have already), Bet365 (i'm limited on it), coral (I'm italian; not admitted).
    I'm follow victor chandler and paddwpower but there are recreative books, not professional (probally they limit me fastly).

    Both William Hill and Ladbrokes will allow you to make a decent profit before limiting you on Horse Racing. Stan James too.

    Betfair of course if you are a high stake bettor you can lower your betting costs to 2% this is better then every bookie affords out there.

    forget it - no book will let you arb them on the horses for long enough to be worthwhile, you're fooling yourself to think otherwise

    Liquidity early in the day

    I like to place my UK horse bets early as staying up all night isn't my go
    Betfair isn't suitable for that as the only ones you'll get matched on will be the drifters
    I'd rather get the early fixed odds with the SP guarantee several of the bookies offer

    Canbet is NOT Australian

    They did start out in Australia and were an excellent book but are now based in UK and have gone down hill a very long way

    I wouldn't have anything to do with them any more even if they did allow me to bet more than a few peanuts

    they're actuallly decent on football nowadays hareeba ... often within 1 or 2 pips of 12bet/sbo and sometimes better than, and unlike 12/sbo they do 25% reloads every now and again

    http://www.betdaq.com is the only one not yet been mentioned .. similar to betfair though maybe not as much liquidity .. all other regular (non exchange) uk based bookmakers will limit you very quickly and all US based/facing bookmakers will only allow you to play on the tote .. so no use to you ...

    Betdaq also have an offer of only 2.5% commisson until March, not a great deal but it all helps.

    betdaq is a good idea.

    but isn't easy make arb between betfair and betdaq because many bot capture immediately every occasion just born....
