France Daily Races Betting Odds and Racecards

We will have a daily racecard for any French horse racing meeting, with the latest French racing betting odds also shown and you can choose between a wide range of bookmakers if you’re looking to get the biggest price about a particular race. Looking through the race card will also provide you with key information.

Racecards for French meetings include detailed information about the distance of a particular race, the handicaps, the trainer and jockey along with the horse’s recent form. You can scan through race cards and get more detailed knowledge before going ahead and placing bets on the selections which interest you the most.

The latest betting odds for French horse racing are created by all the leading bookmakers and you generally find that they differ according to the prices being offered. When you are betting on a key French meeting at a racecourse such as Longchamp, it is worth comparing the latest racing odds and working out where you can land the biggest price.

Paris Longchamp racecards are regularly available and these prove popular with readers at Racing-Odds.com who are keen to peruse through the daily racecard and work out the different races. Some punters like to place French racing bets in the normal way, while others might want to enjoy a Pari Mutuel bet which is commonplace in this country.

Key Horse Races in France

The Prix de l’Arc de Triomphe is the showpiece race in France in the same way that the Kentucky Derby exists in the United States of America, the Grand National in the United Kingdom and the Melbourne Cup in Australia. This takes place at Longchamp in October and is run over a distance of 2,400 metres which is equivalent to one-and-a-half miles. The race was first inaugurated in 1920 and it’s a Group 1 encounter which is open to runners aged three or older.

We provide the latest Arc racecard and Arc de Triomphe betting odds for a race which traditionally takes place on the first Sunday in October, with this being classed as Europe’s second most prestigious flat horse race after the Epsom Derby. Enable enjoyed consecutive wins in 2017 and 2018 although it was Waldgeist who was able to claim the spoils in 2019.

These two races take place at Longchamp at the beginning of the Flat season and are the French horse racing equivalent of the 1,000 and 2,000 Guineas. Some of the leading three-year-olds line up for big prizes, with both races taking place over a mile and these are two French Classic races not to be missed.

In early June, we have two more big Group 1 encounters and these take place at Chantilly, with this another high-profile French racecourse where we provide the latest racecard for every meeting. The Prix du Jockey Club is run over 2,100 metres and this is often referred to as the French Derby, while the Prix de Diane is similarly regarded as the French Oaks and this is another historical race which began in the 19th century.

Grand Prix de Paris is another high-quality race for three-year-old horses in France, with Longchamp Racecourse playing host to another spectacular event and the purse is well over £500,000 for this race. Andre Fabre is a renowned French trainer who has enjoyed thirteen victories between 1989 and 2014, while this is run over 1.5 miles and is a real stamina-sapping encounter. Trainer Aidan O’Brien has recently enjoyed success in this race with victories with Kew Gardens and Japan in the past two years.

Prix Jacques Le Marois is another huge race that takes place in France and we’ll provide a race card so you can enjoy the latest runners and riders for this encounter along with every other race on the card. There is over £1 million available in prize money and this is run over 1,600 metres or a mile, with the action taking place at Deauville Racecourse. It is one of the leading races in the world over a mile and well worth watching.

How to Bet on French Horse Racing

There are several different ways to place French horse racing bets and the primary option is to select a horse that you expect to win on the racecard and back him or her accordingly. This involves selecting a stake which you are comfortable punting and selecting the odds that are available before going ahead and placing your bet.

You will generally see fixed odds betting available for French racing, although there’s sometimes the opportunity to place Pari Mutuel bets which are typical of how French racing fans will bet. This works in a similar way to the Tote in this country and the odds are therefore a reflection of how much money has been staked on each runner in the field.

Sometimes there is also the option to merely bet on a horse to place, while there is also each-way betting available where customers can choose a horse at particular odds and effectively bet half of their stake to win and the other half to place. The place odds are generally calculated by dividing the win odds by a quarter or a third.

Naturally, if you are looking at the latest French race card for a meeting at Longchamp, Deauville or Chantilly, you might fancy a few different horses on the racecard and want to put the selections together in a multiple. Thankfully, you can do a French racing accumulator bet where the odds are all combined and you can get a sizeable return on your stake should they all come in.

Watch Live Streaming of French Horse Racing

There are a large number of French racecourses and that means lots of racecards focusing on the latest meetings, with many bookmakers able to live stream the action to their customers due to the deals that are in place with the online rights providers.

The coastal town of Deauville holds many race meetings both at their Deauville track and also at Clarefontaine. There are many fixtures and punters can especially enjoy August considering that there is a Group One race every weekend of that particular month.

There is also All-Weather racing which takes place in France and that can often occur at Chantilly and Deauville, with customers able to log into their betting accounts and place a small bet on the race that they want to watch. This will then trigger the live streaming which can be enjoyed from start to finish.
