New digital platform to boost WA thoroughbred racing
A new and improved digital destination for WA thoroughbred racing is now available, called Racing WA.
The platform will replace the old Customer Racing Information System (CRIS) as the place to go for race fields, results and form on the Racing and Wagering Western Australia website.
It provides a better presentation of racing data, improved usability and brings all the excitement of WA thoroughbred racing together in one place.
Chief Racing Officer David Hunter said the platform was vital to promoting WA racing nationally and internationally.
“Racing WA will offer highly consumable racing data and content with the aim of making the WA racing product more competitive in the domestic and international wagering market, and ultimately maximise returns for WA racing participants,” David said.
“The new platform has been developed with direct input and testing by current CRIS users to ensure it offers a valuable service to racing participants.
“The feedback has been excellent and we’re pleased with the enhanced, more consistent user experience.”
“We will continue to add new features and functionalities to the platform over the next 12 to 18 months, including integration of content, inclusion of jockey silks and replays from further camera angles.”
Racing WA’s thoroughbred racing hub marks the completion of the platform’s first stage, with the website set to become a one-stop-shop for WA’s three racing codes in the future – covering thoroughbred, harness and greyhound racing content and information.
For detailed instructions on how to use the new platform, please see here for a step-by-step guide, or here for a video demonstration.
CRIS will remain open until later in 2022 to allow for a smooth transition to Racing WA.
