TwinSpires, one of the premier horse racing wagering brands in the US, currently has a robust sign up offer for players in 34 states. You can use the TwinSpires promo code CTRACING to get $400 in bonus cash when you sign up.
The hyperlinked promo code above will direct you to the TwinSpires landing page. The promo code will be automatically input, but you’ll need to put in some personal information (first and last name, email) to establish your account.
From there, you’ll be directed to input your home address to ensure your eligibility. After that, you’ll be prompted to make your account username and password and input your SSN, date of birth and cellphone number.
From there, you’re ready to wager. This offer has a somewhat unique structure as you’ll get $100 in bonus cash for every $400 bet you make, with a maximum value of $400 total. Thus, you’d need to bet $1,600 in cash over 30 days to max out here.
Essentially it’s a $400 sign-up bonus with a 4x roll-over.

Betting on horse racing
Horse racing, unlike other sports betting, is parimutuel — often called pool betting — where you’re wagering against other bettors, not the house.
The odds for each horse are not determined by an oddsmaker or operator but by the amount of money put down on each horse. Thus, the odds can move even after you’ve wagered, all the way up until the gates open.
Additionally, since the odds are not fixed in the way betting on the NBA or other professional sports are, your payout may change up until the race starts.
Beyond just horse racing, events like Jai Alai, greyhound racing and some other events are pari-mutuel.
With all that in mind, it’s important to review the odds on your prospective horse up until the race kicks off.
