Does anyone know of a good horse racing apps for horse racing in Ireland. Something that would have an uptodate fixtures and festivals calendar, racecards, results and Irish racing news. It would need to cover racecourses like Down Royal, Tramore, Kilbeggan and Dundalk and not just the big ones like Fairyhouse, Leopardstown and the Curragh. A free app would be great but I'll happily pay anything up to €20.
Have you tried The Racing Post mobile app? It's not specific to Irish horse racing but it should cover most of the major racecourses in Ireland. I've tried most the horse racing apps and this stage and it is by far the best in my opinion.
Thanks. Yes I have used The Racing Post apps for big meeting like Cheltenham and Aintree and it really is great. I'm looking for an app with more of an Irish horse racing focus?
Hey man, you need to check out the GoRacing.ie app for the iPhone. It is free to download from the Irish iTunes App Store. It's pretty comprehensive when it comes to all things Irish horse racing related. Fixtures for the entire year split by either month or racecourse Horse racing news from both Ireland and globally Racecards giving owners, trainer, jockey, racing form etc. The feature I use most is the racecourse information section. It lists addresses, phone numbers and e-mail addresses for all 26 Irish racecourses. Really useful when you need to get some info on a meeting quickly.
Yes, there is an Racing Post iPad app but I don't think GoRacing have introduced a tablet version yet.
If you like to take a punt on the odd horse race in either Ireland or the United Kingdom then you may enjoy this horse race tipping app from OLBG. Best of all it's free.
Hrfever If you have a betfair account you can use HRFever that is available for the iphone/ipad. Betfair covers the irish horse racing and through this app you can have recommendations based on odds variation of each horse is more probable to win, check it out on https://itunes.apple.com/ie/app/hrfever/id562557872?mt=8.
The free Racing UK app is also pretty good for Irish horse racing. It has excellent racecards and form guides for all Irish races. In each of the racecards there is a computer generated Predictor that forecasts how the race will finish. Their "Verdict" section offers tips on all Irish horse races from their in-house tipsters. You need a subscription to watch the live racing videos on your iPhone and Android but everything else is free - https://itunes.apple.com/gb/app/racing-uk/id352776768?mt=8
The GoRacing.ie app seems to have disappeared from the iTunes App Store. Does anyone know what happened to it? Have they abandoned it completely or are they just developing a newer version. The old version was only available for iPhone so hopefully they're working on a new app that will also be compatible with Android and Windows Phone.
Since the GoRacing iPhone app is no longer available, it is disappointing that they have not made their website mobile compatible http://goracing.ie The good new is Horse Racing Ireland (HRI) have released a couple of new apps for iPhone and Android. The app allows users to vote for your favourite Irish jockey and even watch the Horse Racing Ireland Award live on their phones. It also contains a news section for all the latest Irish horse racing news.
IrishRacing.com have released an iOS and Android app that offers horse racing news, form, tips and gossip on horse racing from Ireland and the United Kingdom http://www.mobilehorseracing.co.uk/irish-racing-app.html
