Tote World Pool

The Tote World Pool is growing considerably with 25 World Pool Days scheduled in 2024.

With 18 days in UK / Ireland and 126 races, the World Pool events are predicted to be over £520 million in the UK/Ire World Pool pools.

In total 28 countries now commingle on World Pool events and the prize money generated is very important to the future of horse racing.

In our World Pool guide, we provide all the information needed to understand how World Pool betting works in April 2024.

What is the Tote World Pool?

The Tote World Pool is a collaboration between totes in multiple countries and the Hong Kong Jockey Club (HKJC).

The World Pool is a single pool bringing punters the chance internationally to bet together into one multi-million pound pool betting experience.

Each horse race in the World Pool can include bets from countries including Australia, the USA, Hong Kong, France, and the United Kingdom.

Hong Kong Jockey Club is set to host more World Pool days on British and Irish races after recent success.

Why Is the World Pool Important For Horse Racing Punters?

The growth of the World Pool is important for horse racing punters because it means that there will be more liquidity in the pools which leads to better value than traditional fixed odds.

The more countries that join and bet into the same overall pool means sports bettors can take on the rest of the world with pool betting.

Big stakes wagered will have less of an impact on the dividend as the pot will be much larger.

Tote regularly beats SP so there’s plenty of value to enjoy courtesy of World Pool.
