Sky Bet have now gone Non-Runner No Bet on the eight Group One races at Royal Ascot next month.
The moves takes uncertainty out for punters looking at the likes of the Queen Anne, St James’s Palace Stakes, Gold Cup and Diamond Jubilee with running plans for a host of leading candidates still uncertain.
Racing PR Manager Michael Shinners said: "We’ve decided the time’s right to offer the non-runner/no bet concession for the Group Ones at Royal Ascot.
"They all promise to be fascinating contests and punters can place their bets with us knowing they’ll get their money back if their selection doesn’t make it to the race.
"We went early with the non-runner/no net concession for the Investec Oaks and Derby which proved popular and I’m sure this move will too."
