How do you bet on live horse racing online?

It’s as simple as opening an account with an advance deposit wagering service in the U.S. or online betting sites in Europe and the U.K., as long as you live in a jurisdiction where doing so is legal.

Live or in-play horse betting odds are offered by many American racebook operators like AmWager, TVG, NyraBets and TwinSpires as well as major sportsbooks Caesars. In the USA parimutuel horse betting sites are working on allowing customers to bet on live races odds.

The process of opening an online account should be simple: In most places, you pick a licensed wagering provider, fill out a form to open an account and make a deposit to fund your initial wagers. Some may require you to appear in person to make your initial deposit or impose other restrictions.

If you’re dealing with a licensed provider, you can close your account at any time and have confidence you will be paid if you do. Here is a guide on watching the race live while betting.
