Tracking data from all 59 British racecourses, provided by Coursetrack and Total Performance Data (TPD), has been made available in one complete database.
Under a new joint-agreement between RMG, ARC, TPD and At The Races (ATR), TPD will exclusively licence the complete British database to end users via a feed of non-live coordinate data and sectional times.
TPD Commercial Director, John McBroom, described the news as a significant milestone for British racing fans.
“With all tracking data now consolidated into a single database, the sectional times in a horse’s form profile are now complete and easy to access,” he said.
“Our Operations Director, George Deedes, has worked tirelessly to deliver this project and we thank ARC, ATR and RMG for their collaboration.”
The single database for sectional times from all British races is available on racingtv.com and attheraces.com. In addition, race fans can purchase tracking data for all UK races from TPD (totalperformancedata.com).
RMG CEO, Martin Stevenson, added: “Timing data can revolutionise how we look at horseracing and, by collaborating with ARC, ATR and TPD, we are delighted to create a new easy-to-navigate database with data from all British racecourses.
“It means race fans and punters will have all this valuable data at their fingertips in one place.”
Finally, ARC Managing Director of Media and International, Brendan Parnell, added: “This exciting development is the latest industry collaboration with RMG which puts racing fans at the centre of an improved customer experience.
“Access to the latest tracking and timing data gives punters a one-stop shop to improve their form and betting analysis.”
