The UK Tote is now co-mingling into the various US tote pools. Unlike other international totes that the UK Tote bets into (Sweden, South Africa, Hong Kong) each US track has its own tote with its own rules, minimums stakes, dividend declarations and commissions.
Which pools will the UK Tote be commingling into?
Phase 1 of our US racing offering will make available our most popular single leg pools
- Win
- Place (mapped to US Show pool)
- Exacta
- Trifecta
- Quinella (where available – not all tracks offer it)
Will the UK Tote host multi-leg pools on US Racing?
No, unlike the Breeders’ Cup for which we offer a UK hosted Placepot, we will not have have this for each US meeting.
Superfecta, HI-5, Daily double, Pick 3,4,5,6 are all pools we will look to offer in the future.
Can I bet into all US tracks?
At the moment, we are only taking thoroughbred racing and sticking with the US racing that is shown on Sky Sports Racing, this means you can watch all the action through our live streaming service.
Will there be race card enrichment?
Yes, as part of a new PA enrichment integration the website and apps will benefit from similar enrichment to our UK Racing Post-enriched cards.
Notable differences are a new tips feature - Danger, Alternative and Dark Horse selections that replace the RP race Verdict.
Will Tote+ be available on US racing?
No, in line with the majority of our international meetings, Tote+ will not be available on any US pools.
What are the minimum stakes on US racing?
Unlike other territories in which all meetings offer the same mins per pool. In the US each track comes with its own set of minimum stake limits. However, we have applied a consistent approach to minimums across our channels to reduce customer confusion.
- Win - £/€2 min bet
- Place £/€2 min bet
- Exacta - £/€2 min total bet - £/€1 increments
- Trifecta - £/€2 min bet - £/€1 increments
- Quinella - £/€2 min bet - £/€2 increments
Will we be streaming US racing on digital platforms (web and app)?
