Royal Ascot is here! It’s five days of world-class horse racing, from 17th June to 21st June, with some questionable fashion choices and the thrill of trying to pick a winner. If you’re planning on having a bet, you’ll want to do it with WhichBookie.co.uk.

This year, Tote.co.uk is rolling out some cracking offers that are perfect for both seasoned punters and those just having a one-off flutter. Forget complicated betting jargon; let’s break down exactly what these deals mean for you and your Royal Ascot enjoyment.

What is World Pool and Why Should You Care?

You’ll hear the term “World Pool” a lot during Royal Ascot. Think of it like this: Instead of betting against a single bookie in the UK, your bet goes into a giant, global pool with bettors from all over the world, from Hong Kong to Australia to Ireland.

The Benefit for You:

A bigger pool of money means there’s a chance for bigger payouts. Because the odds are created by the pool of money itself, you can often get much better value than the standard Starting Price (SP).

• Tote Guarantee: Worried you might get worse odds? Don’t be. With Tote Guarantee, if the Tote payout is less than the SP on a winning bet, they’ll top it up to match the SP. You get the bigger of the two prices, so it’s a win-win.

The World Pool gives you the chance of bigger winnings with the safety net of the SP.

The Ultimate Safety Net: Money Back if You’re 2nd

There is nothing more frustrating than seeing your horse lead all the way only to be pipped at the post. It’s the classic “so close, yet so far” moment, isn’t it.

This Offer takes the sting out of that near miss.

The Benefit for You:

If you place a winning bet (or the win part of an each-way bet) and your horse finishes second, you get your stake back as a free bet (up to £10). It’s like a free second chance.

• How to get it: You MUST opt-in for this Offer. It’s a simple one-click process on the Tote website.
• Get the Offer: [Opt-in for Money Back 2nd at Tote Here]

This is a solid offer for anyone betting at Royal Ascot. It gives you a fantastic cushion and a second bet if your horse comes second.

The £400,000 Pool? Meet the Placepot

If you want the most excitement for a small stake, the Tote Placepot is the bet for you. It’s the undisputed king of pool bets and a brilliant way to stay interested in the whole day.

The goal is simple: pick one horse to place in each of the first six races of the day. They don’t even have to win!

The Benefit for You:

For a small stake (you can play from as little as 50p or £1 per line), you have a chance at a massive payout. During Royal Ascot, the Placepot prize pool is guaranteed to be at least £400,000 every single day.

Just look at some recent payouts to a £1 stake:

• £5,406 win on day one last year, 2024.
• A colossal £36,284 win on Saturday in 2023.
