Sky Racing World enhances content portfolio

(PRESS RELEASE) -- Sky Racing World has announced a significant enhancement to its content portfolio of International racing by facilitating the commingling of USA wagering pools into Tabcorp hosted pools in Australia. Starting last night (Monday 26 July), the commingling of pools became available on Australian Greyhound racing for the first time ever and added to the list of innovative developments from the Australian Greyhound Racing Industry.

The commingling of pools will provide improved liquidity, greater stability of odds and a more attractive wagering proposition to USA players overall. It is also anticipated that commingling will enable the number of Australian Greyhound meetings offered each day to increase which will be a boost to the entertainment options available to USA fans of Greyhound racing and the growth of the Australian industry.

Sky Racing World has distributed the simulcast of Australian Greyhound racing in the USA since June 2020, and it has quickly become popular with USA Greyhound racing fans. Audiences have been able to experience the quality of the Australian Greyhound racing product from a variety of locations across Australia, including the states of Victoria (Melbourne) and New South Wales (Sydney), with feature racing from city tracks like The Meadows and Wentworth Park. Now, they’ll also get the added benefit of commingling and improved liquidity. The first pools open for commingling were on a Healesville meet in Victoria.

US players will be able to access the Australian Greyhound wagering pools (NSW Tote) via Advance-Deposit Wagering (ADW) partners who offer wagering on Greyhounds.

David Haslett, CEO of Sky Racing World, stated: “The commingling of pools will provide a significant boost to wagering play on Australian Greyhound racing. Last year, we were proud to introduce the simulcast of Australian Greyhound racing to the USA, but this will take participation to the next level. It is also a great milestone for the Sky Racing World business, Tabcorp and the Australian Greyhound racing industry and its state jurisdictions.”
