Nooo, the other way around. You put ÂĢ16 on and get ÂĢ1 back plus your stake if you win. I think.

I think it`s the other way round Darlo. Her odds are 1/16, which means you have to put on ÂĢ16 on to get ÂĢ1 back. According to hubby, the bookies must think she`s a dead cert to go.

No, darlo, it's the other way around - as the odds are 1/16 or 1/12 etc, it means you put ÂĢ16 on to only get ÂĢ1 back.

Freddie is presently 7/1 which means you put ÂĢ1 on to get ÂĢ7 back.
