Anyone trying to access these tonight, use the calendar rather than searching via horse name.

You'll get completely lost if you do the latter as the races are not properly archived or in any chronological order.

TSS · January 2014

Pr.com subscription is a rip off anyway.

ErrolFlynn · January 2014

The website is now completely busted. Pretty embarrassing effort from all concerned.

Mountain · January 2014

I'd love to do form for tomorrow's meeting.

This is ridiculous.

Thoroly_Bread · January 2014

I doubt they could run a bath half of them...

TheDiva · January 2014

Totally clapped out tonight it seems....

TSS · January 2014

$275 is a rip off for sure for that product. It's clearly no value for money, and it's broken and not well maintained.

Look at harness.org.au who provides replays of every race for every meeting free online, and Cannington Greyhounds does the same for WA chasing.

$275 is a rip off.

It shouldn't be anymore than $25 a year if they MUST charge something.

im having same problem my self RIO, what a joke

Thumper · January 2014

Issues we are experiencing are unacceptable but I don't think $275 is unresonable. If you know how to use what you are seeing it pays for itself many times over.

Costs $600 a year if you want Sydney and/or Melbourne replays.

TheDiva · January 2014

those who can see the videos, anyone finding them all pixilated (sp) ?

Im also finding very slow at loading a race up.

hollda09 · January 2014

are there replays of Geraldton trials or are they off limits to the public?

Hong Kong, the gambling leader of the racing world.

Guess what?

Free videos.

Australian racing is run by clowns who see a race video fee as an income stream but can`t see any benefit in giving their punters the information for free, which in turn would create more turnover (the only true income that makes a difference).

Short sighted incompetence.

Yes,

Very slow to load up

Pixilated

Freeze halfway through

TheSwooper · January 2014

I can remember paying $30 for a VHS tape of each meeting once upon a time. Having said that, I haven't renewed my subscription this season. When I first subscribed it included free passes, vouchers etc but apart from the videos, the only other tangible benefit is the PR lounge ;-)

I am surprised however that no one from Perth Racing has bothered to contact me as to why I haven't renewed my membership. Obviously they are very busy.

PuntingTragic · January 2014

That's why we need a free to air dedicated racin pacing an chasing channel NZ has had one for a very long time covering everything why can't we ?

Worst thing they ever did was allowing TVN in the game sky is so superior to the swill TVN dishes up with ego tripper extrodanaire snowy straighten my hooter out Clark as no 1 presenter

End if the day all we want is vision free is best for all

whereamigoingwrong · January 2014

Tried ie, safari nothing. Firefox worked but resolution crap. Real player works perfectly.

loose_goose · January 2014

Cannot even get the last 600m replay or interviews to work, and a mate who is a member says still cannot see his horses replay from Sunday at Mt Barker, and it is now Wednesday. Shoddy service if forking out up to 300 notes a year

thefalcon · January 2014

yep, true, l_g..no last 600m or interviews on cris for the 22/1 ascot meeting. X(

Piston_Broke · January 2014

Falc, they were there last night

GaryH · January 2014

I'm not going to be able to help, but all the above works fine on my laptop? Running IE 11, but it also seems to work on Firefox?

thefalcon · January 2014

just a blank space on my machine... :-w

thefalcon · January 2014

mine is still blank.

err, what is "flash"?

chris, i need your help.

AndrewCarter · January 2014

I can never understand the mentality of raceclubs and their broadcasting partners in charging their customers for what amounts to essential information for punters i.e race replays and trials.

It is part of your cost of business, not the punters, and a legitimate business expense that must be factored into your bottom line in order to attract the customer to your product. Why after everything else the punter has to put with should they have to pay for this 'privilege' and then on top of that receive substandard service.

How come both racing and harness racing in NZ can provide this service for free while harness racing in Australia, supposedly a more backward sport, can offer this service for free yet thoroughbred racing can't.

Did these geniuses running racing ever think that by making these tools of the trade readily available that their turnover might actually increase by significantly more and provide a far greater long term benefit than the relatively small amount they generate by ripping off punters and charging for replays, trials etc.

G'day Punter!
