Specialised racing products at Sportsbet

MaxiDiv

Maxidiv guarantees a dividend that is at least equal to the highest official win dividend paid by the three national TABs, or the Starting Price with Bookmakers on Track - whichever is the better. Maxidiv is available on both the internet and telephone betting for all metropolitan thoroughbred races.

Best Fluctuation

Available on all Metropolitan meetings and pays the best official bookmakers fluctuation for thoroughbred racing. Eg. if a horse opens up at $5 but blows out to $8 then is backed late into $4, you still receive the $8. BF must be placed 30 minutes prior to the race.

Starting Price Insurance

SPI is available on all listed and group races and guarantees that if the official SP is greater than the fixed price taken - the higher of the two dividends will be paid for the win portion.

Sportingbet - Pros and Cons

Website & Layout
	Sportingbet have done a good job separating their Racing and Sports books making it easy to navigate around. It’s very easy to browse through upcoming races and even easier to place a bet.
	With lots of flash images and heaps of menus and content on the site, the website is slow to load pages at the best of times which is a concern for customers with an older machine.
Markets & Odds
	The huge range of betting markets and the fact they offer better prices than the TAB’s is one of the main reasons Sportingbet are one of the leaders in Australia. They have competitive prices and release their odds very early.
	At first, if your knew to racing betting it may be a minefield to get your head around all the different bet types. But to experienced punters, this won’t be an issue.
Betting Products & Services
	As mentioned above, the sheer volume of racing products and betting resources are fantastic. You’d be struggling to find another bookmaker in this country which offer a service better than Sportingbet.
	As Sportingbet provide more betting products and services than all the other bookies out there, it’s hard to find any faults with their current service.
Free Bets & Promotions
	Unlike other bookies, Sportingbet don’t offer a sign up bonus or free bet, which is unfortunate. But they make up for this with a range of different promotions which are constantly changing, allowing you to get extra dividends and bonuses.
