Most sites either show a daily extra place races list or lock automation behind a paywall “matcher”. This free Extra Place Offers Builder lets you import racecards, toggle bookmakers with runner thresholds (8+, 11+, 12+, 16+), and export a clean Markdown/JSON post ready for your CMS—no paid odds tools required. For users who still want automation later, you can add a premium matcher link.

"

Why this matters: “Today’s extra places” pages rank because they’re fresh, structured, and scannable. Your builder produces that format consistently and transparently (date, source, thresholds), which many competitors don’t expose.

Who it’s for

How to Use the Tool (step-by-step)

1. Pick the date for your post (e.g., “Thursday 14th August 2025”).
2. Add races: paste CSV (time,course,runners) or JSON; or click Add race.
3. Set terms: choose places (3–6) and odds fraction (1/5 or 1/4).
4. Toggle bookmakers: click chips (e.g., bet365, Sky Bet (8+), Paddy Power (11+)) and add any runner thresholds.
5. Check runners vs thresholds: the card shows if a race still qualifies.
6. Export: click Copy or Download .md for a perfect “Extra Place Offers Today” post.
7. Cross-link calculators:
   • Each-Way: Each-Way Calculator
   • Lay Bet: Lay Bet Calculator
   • Free Bet (SNR): Free Bet Calculator
   • Dutching: Dutching Calculator

Tip: Many ranking sites publish daily lists without explaining their process. Adding an “Updated at HH:MM” timestamp and consistent formatting improves freshness signals and snippet eligibility.

Recommended Workflow

What about matchers and paid tools?

Premium extra place matchers (e.g., OddsMonkey, Outplayed) add live odds, filters and exchange links—great for speed and price-matching, but paywalled. Your builder focuses on publishing the daily EP list quickly, with transparent inputs and free exports. Consider linking to a matcher as an optional upgrade for readers.

Accuracy & Responsible Use

• Commission & valuation: when you convert refunds (SNR), model realistic returns (commonly 70–80%) in your downstream calculator flow; Betfair Exchange commission applies to winning lays and varies by package/region.
• Non-runners can reduce fields and void extra places; re-check thresholds near the off.
• Bet safely: EP hunting is strategy, not guarantees. If betting stops being fun, take a break (see local support).

Note: Many editorial pages list EP races and place terms but omit commission and valuation detail—your tool’s threshold checks and calculator links help users avoid common pitfalls.
