Identify the event
A racecard identifies the course, off time, distance, race type and runners. Going describes the surface conditions. The declared field can change, so check the final information for the race you are considering.
An each-way bet has a win part and a place part. A €5 each-way selection normally means a €10 total stake. The number of places and the fraction used for the place odds are specific terms, not universal settings.

Understand the market
Ante-post and day-of-race bets can treat non-runners differently. Read the rule attached to the market when the bet is placed; a later runner list does not rewrite that original condition.
Dead heats, withdrawals and changes to the field may affect settlement. Keep the accepted slip and the displayed each-way terms so the resulting calculation can be checked.
