Betting Sensibly Betting Sensibly
Whilst having a bet on the horses can be fun, it must be remembered that every bet can lose as well as win. Self-control is the key to betting sensibly:

  • Make a limit and stick to it. If you wish to bet at the racecourse, include your limit as part of the cost of the day. That way, any winnings are a bonus, and any losses are part of the costs.
  • Don't chase losses. There is always another day.
  • Only bet what you can afford to lose. You alone can judge this.
  • Stay in control of your betting.
Gamcare Gamcare provide a confidential telephone counselling helpline for anyone who is concerned about their own, or someone else's betting.

The national gambling helpline is 0845 600 133 (local rate).
