The toteplacepot is the most popular daily bet in Britain. Punters can literally spend pennies on the wager and amass thousands of pounds...without selecting a race winner!

The record dividend stands at over £66,000 while the biggest pool could top the £700,000 mark during the Cheltenham Festival in March 2007.That means a dividend of over £500,000 could be won for as little as a £1 stake during the Cheltenham meeting!

Malcolm Boyle provides a comprehensive study of every placepot dividend from 2006, along with key five and ten year analyses, featuring permutation charts and race-by-race toteplacepot unit comparisons at the major meetings.

There is also a handy Q & A section for the uninitiated.
