Best Gambling Sites for the Triple Crown
There are a lot of great horse betting sites out there so it’s hard to pick just a few. However, I do have a few recommendations. I consider these the best sites for the Triple Crown because they are safe, easy to use and always have a variety of promotions in the run-up to each event.
1. Bovada
USA customers accepted
Bovada is always a top contender in the betting world. Bovada has been around in some form or another for many years and it has always given its customers a world-class experience. What I especially like about Bovada is how reliable it is for processing cashouts.
You can be sure to see a number of Triple Crown promotions at Bovada this year. In fact, Bovada is already promising a 50% horse betting bonus to all new customers. Bovada has all the standard and exotic horse racing standards that horse racing fans know and love.
2. BetOnline
USA customers accepted
BetOnline.ag is another rock solid gambling site that has been online for years. The site is currently processing withdrawals faster than ever. If the Triple Crown treats you well this year, you’ll be glad you chose to do business with BetOnline.
You can expect to see a variety of Triple Crown promotions from BetOnline this year. They also have a standard 7% rebate program that gives you back 7% of all your betting action every day, win or lose. All new customers automatically get a $25 risk-free wager on their first bet. All you have to do is sign up and make a bet. If that bet loses, BetOnline will reimburse you with up to $25.
3. Bet365
USA customers NOT accepted
Bet365.com is an easy pick for all our non-US readers. Bet365 has been in the betting game since the 1970s and it has a squeaky clean reputation for fair odds, fast payouts and hassle-free deposits. If Bet365 accepted Americans, it would give Bovada a serious run for the first place recommendation here at GamblingSites.net.
What’s nice about Bet365 is that they always have competitive odds, they can stream some races free (even on your phone) and are always releasing new horse racing promos. If you live outside the US and are interested in the Triple Crown, Bet365 is an easy choice.
