Win More Money With Mobile Racebook Apps
In the United Kingdom and Ireland horse racing punters can choose from any number of betting shops on their local high-street. As a result, horse race bettors have been relatively slow to adopt the latest mobile technology in comparison to casino and poker players. Bricks-and-mortar betting shops have traditionally been the home of serious racing punters because they are a great way to socialize with other racing fans and pick up tips for upcoming races. Their dominance now appears to be slipping as racebook apps for devices like the iPhone, Samsung Galaxy S5 and Nokia Lumia become more and more sophisticated and offer features that are just too good to ignore. Here are just a few reasons why you should try our featured mobile bookies.
Get betting tips and advice on your phone and win more bets
In the past if you wanted to get racing tips you needed to pop down to your local bookies or or racecourse in order to get the word on the ground. New dedicated tipping apps are now available for both iOS and Android devices that combine the betting knowledge of thousands of tipsters to help you beat the bookies. Tips success rates are ranked in a table, which makes it super easy for you to follow the most profitable gamblers who consistently pick winners.

The PaddyPower racing app also contains a summary of the days racing tips and NAPS from publications like the Racing Post and Irish Field.
Watch any horse race live on your smartphone or tablet
One of the greatest pleasures in life is being able to watch the horse you've backed romp home to victory. Even though terrestrial television channels like the BBC, Channel 4 and RTE broadcast major race meeting like the Cheltenham Festival, Royal Ascot and the Grand National, if you want to want to watch regular horse races live from around the globe, you'd need to go to your local betting shop to see a live feed. Thankfully those days are now in the past and it is possible to watch racing on your iPad or HTC One from racetracks like Churchill Downs (Kentucky Derby), Flemington Racecourse (Melbourne Cup) and the Meydan Racecourse (Dubai World Cup).

Get weather reports and ground conditions from racecourses
We all know that certain horses run better on particular types of ground conditions. Some prefer when the going is heavy, soft or yielding, while others perform better when the going is to good, good to firm or firm. The Coral for iPad app now provides racing punters with 5-day forecasts and ground condition reports for individual racetracks which could greatly improve your odds of placing a winning bet.
Mobile racecards and form guides
If you prefer to choose which horses to back and not rely on tips from racing insiders, you'll need to get your hands on a racecard in order to make an informed choice. You could spend money on a newspaper if you wished or alternatively you could just use the free racecards available from every bookmaker app. These racecards provide information on the horses name, weight, position to starting pole, owner, jockey, trainer and most importantly a form guide. The form guide provides detailed information on how the horse performed in its last four runs. Helpful comments and summaries are also available to help you make the right decision.

The ubiquitous nature of smartphone has meant that bookmakers are eager to get their customers to install their mobile software on their Sony Xperia or Google Nexus devices. Competition is so fierce between the gambling companies that they've even stared to offer enhanced horse race betting odds to their mobile customers. This means that you'll get more money on a winning horse when you place a mobile wager.
