What Is ITV Pick 7?

Pick 7 is a free-to-enter competition in which you select seven horses from chosen racecards, using your Sky Bet or Sky Games account for the chance to win large cash prizes. It is thus similar to Sky Sports Super 6, which is a free-to-enter predictions game for football, though horse racing enthusiasts will find that the jackpot between the two greatly differs.

Whereas the Super Six has an impressive jackpot of £250k, the ITV Pick 7 maximum prize is set at £50k. On the other hand, some non-broadcast races are also offered in the ITV Pick 7 game, though with jackpots of £1k instead for obvious reasons. Nevertheless, seeing as it is completely free for horse racing punters to play the game, £50k is still a tremendous jackpot prize.

How to Play ITV Pick 7

    All you need to do now is to pick your 7 horses for the 7 selected races. Make sure you do it before the deadline and good luck!

What Can You Win From ITV Pick 7?

In addition to the already mentioned £250k jackpot, players will also be able to make picks for non-broadcast races that have £1k jackpots every week. To make it easier for you, we have compiled all of the main prizes below:

  • £250k Jackpot: Handed out to the player(s) who gets all seven picks right (split if several winners).
  • £1k Jackpot: Handed out to player(s) who get non-broadcast picks right
  • Consolation prize: £1000 (broadcast competitions) or £100 (non-broadcast competitions) to the best player

Another fun feature is the leaderboard on the site, which gives players the chance to see who performed best in the last round and the recent winners. Unfortunately, unlike the Sky Sports Super 6 game, there does not seem to be any prizes for finishing high up in the standings over time.
