TEMPLEGATE goes in search of winning a lot from a little with his Placepot selections on day four of Cheltenham Festival.
The famous Placepot is a bet where you select a horse to be placed in the FIRST SIX races of any meeting.
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!
And there simply is no better time to get involved than day three of the Festival.
There is an estimated £1million in the pot on Gold Cup day.
