With the flat season now in full swing we thought it was a good opportunity to look back at the improvements we've made over the last six months across both the Exchange and Sportsbook, Here's the lowdown...

"Backed a horse on the Sportsbook at 5/1 but 7/1 is available on the Exchange? Fear not, we'll Price Rush your bet to make sure you get the best value. Lovely."

We now boast an industry leading in-play Cash Out offering. Across both Exchange and Sportsbook, no other bookmaker gives you the opportunity to Cash Out your bets in-running, during a race.

Through our innovative Price Rush functionality, we can potentially offer Sportsbook customers enhanced value by providing better odds when they are available on the Exchange.
