I just went in to check a result and OHHHH dear, why are they doing this? I'm still trying to fathom bf's "classic exchange"

Cannot be done East Gooner.

For Spotlights - you need to be a Subscriber (as I presume you are) - But they are ONLY available on the 'Pro Card' (Individual race/Colour card)

Log-In your membership

> from At-A-Glance card (if you are in 'Show All Races for this meeting - as I suspect you are - and as most 'At-A-Glance' users set their cards to) > Click on the race title (such as Winter Derby) > that opens up the individual race > Select 'Pro Card' > Click on 'Settings' > In the Drop-Down box - Click on 'Spotlights' to turn the Icon Green > Click 'Done' at the top of the Drop-Down box .... and you will be there .............. EVENTUALLY - as Spotlights will then be under each runner.

Alternatively - If you do not want them under each runner, on the (Pro) card ...

Scroll down to underneath the 'Pro Card' and collective Spotlights are there.

Have you had any replies to your emails ?

Me too. I shall remind them !

As well as losing the fast cards we have also lost the race-card specific fast results feature.

That'll be the one they put up in lights

Still no replies from Sporting Life.
They are obviously treating their users/ customers, with contempt.

What a load of...............

Your message to feedback@sportinglife.com couldn't be delivered.
The group feedback only accepts messages from people in its organization or on its allowed senders list, and your email address isn't on the list.


Sent to coventry....

So why isn't this basic information ( and a lot more equally basic info) not there already. ?
Is this an implementation of a new design by numbers ???
Stage 1, Stage 2 etc etc..

What a load of bs.

They have totally screwed up.

oneyall, on your phone can you see more than 4 runners at a time when looking at the race-card. Can't on my laptop, one of so many things wrong with it, just awful.

non runners, going, bloodstock, profile search etc

will be there in due course, dont think they are just going to drop all that information, if they do then you have a case for moaning



Rofl, we'll just have to twiddle our fingers in the meantime then. It's already cost me hours of work.

Slightly O/T but the race summaries on BET365 were previously from sportinglife.com, I think, but they don't appear to be anymore. Who are they getting them from now or is it their own original material?

The thoughts of Richard Flint
Chief Executive of Sky Betting and Gaming (Sky Bet) and director of Hestview Ltd t/a Sporting Life

Racing's demographic challenge

    "Despite some excellent progress on attendances at courses I know from our own customer research that racing is missing out on a whole new generation of customers. A quarter of our customers are under 25. Nearly all of their betting activity is via a mobile device. Even desktop top computers are old fashioned to them. And those customers are seventeen times more likely to bet only on football than only on racing. And racing is the favourite sport of just 13% of these customers. That's a third of the number of the over 55s. Racing is facing an unprecedented demographic challenge. We must all work together if we are to address it. And I believe the betting industry is well placed to help."

...

    "I'm incredibly proud that the legendary Sporting Life is now part of the Sky Betting & Gaming family. Funded by betting this brings racing news to 4 million people every month. So we have massive audiences for racing to talk to. We know that these are potential customers, for both of us; we know the digital channels that they like to use; and know how to engage them. And at Sky Bet at least, we want to promote racing to them, because we believe that racing is in many ways the most exciting sport to bet on. We can help address the demographic challenge the sport faces - by working together to promote the sport in an accessible and engaging way to the millions of people who use our services each and every week."

Just an absolute travesty that half of the data you need to invest in a bet, (to hopefully subsequently appear on the results page ) is conspicuous by its absence.
A joke of a site now. Obviously designed by people who know absolutely nothing about  racehorses and what information is required in order to place a bet.

its a load of rubbish

I used the site for 2 reasons only. 1/ To watch a race 'live' after the race to enjoy the race without knowing the result I just played the video icon. Now you get the result before scrolling down to the video. 2/ Video archive. Can I not get this now?

its not just the sportinglife that's changed there the Racingpost have done the same and its a load of ****

Just looked at the form of Cigarisi in the first at Plumpton, 5th at Taunton,there was 68 runners in the field ?
