1) Caulfield Guineas - Win a Caulfield Cup Free Bet
Back a horse to Win or Each Way in the Caulfield Guineas , if you pick the winner, the Free Bet fairy will magically credit your account with a Free Bet on next Saturday's Caulfield Cup matching your stake to a maximum of $50.

(Note: Free Bets will be able to be placed once the final Caulfield Cup field is declared and the early market is released, free bets will not be valid for the Caulfield Cup futures market).
2) Toorak Handicap - Paupers Payback
Back a horse to Win or Each Way in the Toorak Handicap, if your horse finishes a costly 4th, the Free Bet Fairly will wave her wand and refund your stake as a Free Bet (up to $50).

I just ran across this offer.  It looked ok until I read this bit in the T&C.....Due to legislative restrictions, VIC and QLD residents are not eligible to receive the Bonus Bet.  

Anyway, I thought I'd post it in case someone else is interested.

https://www.luxbet.com/sales_page.php?staticcontent=400_bonus

For new customers enter promo code Extra400 when you sign up, and get a bonus bet that's double your deposit (up to $400) i.e Deposit $25 = $50 free bet, Deposit $200 = $400 free bet

Your Initial Deposit and any winnings accrued from the Bonus Bet must be turned over at least once (x1) on bets with a dividend of greater than $1.50 per $1 bet (the Minimum Turnover Threshold) within 90 days before any withdrawals from your account will be processed. If the Minimum Turnover Threshold is not met within 90 days of receipt of the Bonus Bet, the Bonus Bet (if not already used), or any winnings already accrued from the Bonus Bet, will be withdrawn from your Luxbet account.

Suggest people bookmark this great initiative.

The Luxbet offer is somewhat weird.

If you dig hard enough you should find out that it is referring to a bonus on the winning portion of your bet.

Eg a $1.20 shot will be paid at $1.24 not $1.44.

Also it is Victoria only.

Surely Luxbet is not going to bet back through the Tasmanian scam for a ~10% kickback, rather than its parent Tabcorp?

I backed Linton and Solar Charged with this method last weekend.

I was paid Home Tote + 5% (on div exc stake) straight away, then you get paid an extra 15% within three days.

There are some turnover requirements on the 15% bonus but that shouldn't bother most here.

When you say it's Victoria only, do you mean that's because it only applies to Group races? I'm in Qld and was paid if you mean it only applies to Victorian clients.

Anything under about $21 I'll take this offer if it's a Group race or their Best of The Best if it's not.

No.

Currently in the conditions it says it only applies to Victorian Group races.

Betfair has just come up with an amazing Triple Tote + 20% guarantee for Caulfield BSP on Saturday.

Of course there are a squillion conditions, of which very few are clear.

Apparently you need to opt in, rather than just get this automnatically.

Contrary to what the TV ads would suggest.

Given I recieved the lay the fave for $100 offer from Betfair via email today does that mean I can participate without having to ring them up and I will be reimbursed if it gets up?

My understanding is that if the email came directly from Betfair you don't need to do anything, but if you received it through a third party it's best to ring and have the code attached to your account.

To be safe a two minute call the the help desk will make sure everything is 100% OK.

Best tote plus 20 percent at Betfair

Betfair are offering customers an amazing best tote plus 20 percent on all winning bets at Caulfield on Saturday.

There is no catch to it, all you have to do is either be an existing customer or open up an account and you will get 20 percent overs on any winner you back at Caulfield.

Also--you must "opt in"---I've going to give it a big wrap tomorrow   

Now--just to get some winners 

Those who managed $100 on all the Caulfield winners can expect an account top up of $1,502!

By my calculations @5% commission.

From Betfair to me:

"You took advantage of the Betfair SP offer, Best Tote plus 20%, at Caulfield and we've topped up your winnings! How's that for fair play? We still believe the Betfair SP gives you the best odds around.

Stick with us for the full card at Geelong Cup Day (20th) and Cox Plate Day (23rd) and you’ll come out at least 20% in front again*.  "


Those of you who did not take up this offer need to take a long hard look at yourselves.
