Why should I place a Yankee bet?

If you’re backing four separate events and you fancy each of them to win, a Yankee is a simple way of placing the multiples to ensure a bigger win if any two, three or all four of your picks are successful. Yankees are great for backing a number of selections that may pay a shorter price individually, with a more handsome return when placed across this sort of bet. With all four picks strongly expected to deliver, a Yankee ignores singles and focuses your staking power on more profitable multiple bets, with the potential for bigger returns.

Drawbacks of a Yankee

The main issue with a Yankee is that it doesn’t allow you to stake different amounts on the different multiples included within the bet. They all have to be the same. You may wish to stake less on the four-fold than the doubles for example, or you may wish to have higher stakes on the single, doubles and trebles containing your most fancied selection.

How does an each-way Yankee work?

The each-way Yankee is a Yankee in which every bet is an each-way bet, making a total of 22 bets. This means the stake is double that of a normal Yankee. Each-way Yankees give you a payout for each horse that places as well as every horse that wins. A smart pointer to take into consideration when placing an each-way Yankee is to include picks for which the place payout of an each-way single is at least equal to, if not more, than your unit stake. Bookies usually offer 1/5 of the win odds for the place part of racing each-way bets. This means a £1 each-way bet (costing £2) on a 5/1 horse pays out at evens if your horse makes the places, meaning your return would be your £1 profit, plus the returned £1 stake for the winning place bet.
