UK HORSE RACING RESULTS - FREE
Overview
If there is one thing that horse racing enthusiasts are looking for, then it’s an app that will provide them as much information on each race as possible. Having said that, as the app market starts to develop, so does the number of apps providing this service, making it even more important for developers to go above and beyond when it comes to these types of services. The UK Horse racing Results app – catchy title, right? - has been designed to not only give you a look at the most recent results from races within the UK, but also shows you live odds, ante post, fixtures and tips to create a well balanced racing app. |
Features
Main Menu
Aesthetically speaking, the app is actually a pretty simple design, but one that works really well. There are very few images involved, which is a positive in our eyes, and it just seems to function really well. The swipe gestures to the right and downwards makes accessing menus really easy and available from any page on the app, no matter how deep you find yourself.
The homepage will initially give you the last three races that have been run and the results for those races. You get to see the venue and time of race along with the top three finishers. By clicking on each race you can see a little more information on each race regarding things such as pay-outs and the ability to share this information via Twitter if you so wish. The results section also includes a drop down menu at the top so you can scroll between the meetings of your choice along with a refresh button if you are waiting on the results or pay-outs of a certain race.
The next races tab allows you to see all upcoming racing for that day. You can select your meeting then the time of the race you want to view a pretty simple race card. The race includes the horse, silks and number along with the latest odds. The odds are linked up to Betfred and we aren’t sure if the app is affiliated with the bookmaker in someway, but all odds lead you back to the Betfred app.
Finally the tips section lets you see a pretty basic tipping service on offer. It literally just shows you a quick overview of some horses that they are tipping without any information to back up those tips. Again, we aren’t sure where they have pulled the tips from, but we’d likely take this with a pinch of salt than gospel.

Racing Tips Section
Finally the tips section lets you see a pretty basic tipping service on offer. While they claim to provide punters with the best daily tips and Naps from industry experts, in reality the app literally just shows you a quick overview of some horses that they are tipping without any information to back up those tips.

Verdict
As a result app the UK Horse Racing Results app has worked very well on the whole. A lot of apps tend to take a fair while to update with the latest results but we found that this one was about as quick as you’re going to find. Some results did take slightly longer to come in than others, but you can generally find the results of most races within around 5 minutes of the result being finalised.
The app includes some nice features to go along with the results section. The tipping, ante post and fixtures were a nice addition, but they don’t really take away from what this app essentially is, and that is a results app for horse racing fans. Overall though, we were impressed with how it works and would be happy to recommend it.
