Sky Racing World Launches Free Live Streaming Mobile App

Sky Racing World, the Louisville, Ky.-based distributor of International horseracing (Thoroughbred) content and subsidiary of Australian wagering operator Tabcorp, has announced the launch of its new smartphone App. Available today on the Apple and Google Play stores, the Sky Racing World Streaming App will make live viewing of International horse racing easier and more accessible than ever before for North American handicappers.

Featuring extensive coverage of live horse racing meets and live harness racing coverage, the new mobile App will provide enthusiasts of the sport with an unparalleled mobile experience that is completely free. With a few quick clicks, iPhone, iPad and Android users can download the Sky Racing World Streaming App and instantly gain access to a variety of International horse racing content, all at their fingertips.

The App boasts live horse racing for meets in Australia, New Zealand, South Africa, Korea and Japan, as well as live harness racing coverage in Australia. In addition, the Sky Racing World smartphone app also includes a link to free past performances, race forms and programs on the Sky Racing World website.

Horse racing is one of the few sports that has continued despite the ongoing global pandemic, albeit, without spectators in some jurisdictions. With its new mobile app for iOS and Android, Sky Racing World looks to fill the void of not being able to attend meets in person by bringing the thrilling action from global tracks to horse racing fans, wherever they go.

David Haslett, President and CEO at Sky Racing World, said: “Demand for digital racing content has accelerated since the start of the global pandemic, so it became clear that a single-minded App to stream and watch International racing would fill a prominent need in the market. We are excited to show our customers how committed we are to continuing to deliver world-class racing from a variety of markets.”

Races are available to live stream on their mobile devices through the Sky Racing World Streaming App on iOS and for the first time on Android devices. Fans can also watch live via desktop at skyracingworld.com, and watch and wager with all major ADW platforms.
