Cheltenham Festival 2026: Get £40 free bets for new customers with Tote
You can pick more than one horse in a race – you just multiply the number of selections in each race to calculate your stake.
So for staking it’s 2x2x2x2x1x2 which adds up to 32 lines.
You can stake what you want upwards from 5p a line which would cost a total of £1.60. 10p a line is £3.20 and so on.
Provided at least one in each race is placed, we get a payout!
