Extra place feed

Only the races where a bookmaker pays more places than the exchange place market. Each row carries both places counts, the win lay and the place lay, so the extra place is visible without a lookup.

GET/v2/odds/extra-placeregion uk100 tokensTry this call

Tokens for one call of the whole UK & Ireland feed. A filtered call costs less: pricing publishes the table it is worked out from.

What's in a reply

The each-way feed's fields. A row is here because of two numbers:

back[].places
The places the bookmaker pays, with back[].place_fraction beside it.
lay.place[].places
The places the exchange market pays, always fewer. In the example: 5 against 4.

The extra place feed is pre-match only.

The raw odds feed carries each-way terms on golf and racing winner markets, with extra_place set when a bookmaker pays more places than its standard terms.

Size both lays with the extra place calculator.

Questions

  • How is it different from the each-way feed?

    Same shape, fewer rows: only the offers where the bookmaker pays more places than the exchange place market.

  • Does an extra place row guarantee a return?

    No. It pays extra only when the horse finishes in an extra place, at the prices on the row. Any other finish gives the qualifying result, and prices move.
