What the bookies are offering for the 2023 Melbourne Cup

Playup

PlayUp.com.au’s Melbourne Cup services:


The 2023 Melbourne Cup will be the fourth for PlayUp after the Australian brand was established after the merging together of ClassicBet and MadPunter in 2020.

While PlayUp has a fantastic spread of markets for sports betting punters, racing is where it really shines.

The format of its desktop website is specifically-designed to be easy to navigate for racing punters, while its smart phone applications are quick, easy to use and won’t let you down during the mad rush on Melbourne Cup day.

Melbourne Cup punters can expect a number of promotions from PlayUp on Cup day. PlayUp pays out on first past the post, as well as on an upheld protest. The bookmaker has shown a record of providing cash back offers (in the form of bonus bet cash, up to $50) on big Flemington race days if your winning bet finishes second or third.

Bet365

Bet365’s Melbourne Cup services:


The global gambling giant, Bet365.com.au, provides a brilliant Melbourne Cup service to its loyal punters.

On all Australian horse racing, if you select a fixed win and the final tote price is greater than the price you took, they will pay you out at the bigger odds (terms and conditions apply – read on for more info) — that is a fantastic deal for futures punters.

Bet365 has competitive racing markets, quality desktop and smartphone layouts for quick, easy punting and provides a bevy of promotions and bonuses in the lead-up to the big race.
