Golden Slipper / Andy Morris / 12 March 2009 / Leave a comment Bet Now

Punters from all states and territories (except New South Wales) can reap some real dividends over the next few weeks courtesy of Betfair's Golden Slipper free bet promotion.

Betfair will top-up all new accounts with $50 after $50 has been bet or layed by the customer. That's $50 to bet with for FREE on the Golden Slipper if you open an account NOW using the password SUM777.

And there is no shortage of great races to start to fill your wallet courtesy of this Golden Slipper free bet.

Betting on Betfair is easy and can offer far more value than traditional wagering options.

Flexibility is the key with punters in a position to almost dictate the odds they are prepared to take for their selections.

This is a far cry from the traditional tote method which has you betting 'blind' - the final dividend quite often a letdown compared to what may have been displayed a few seconds before the 'off'.

And for those new account holders the prospect of playing bookmaker and 'laying' a horse you think 'can't win' can be just as much fun.

How often have you observed a runner and realised 'hey, that horse looks as miserable as my mother-in-law' and watched it race accordingly. Now you can make money out of your judgement by laying the nag for a few bob. It's well worth a try and adds a new dimension to your enjoyment of the sport.

Betfair provide a wealth of information in order to improve your account. The Autralia and New Zealand Racing Zone includes comprehensive form guides and performance statistics for horses, trainers and jockeys. A current comparison of tote and Betfair prices is also thrown in.

I can't wait for the Golden Slipper Festival to begin but first I'll be telling my mates to open a Betfair account to enjoy the Golden Slipper free bet promotion.

Times are tough and only a mug would ignore this great offer!
