I can’t remember an app with such tiny text. I have no idea when looking at race sheet, what is going on. Immediate deleted the app. ### 1/5 — Horrible app *2025-08-16, version 5.13.0* I am playing jackpot winner and this app keeps popping up and it won’t let me out of it. I refuse to put my account information into the phone for anything because I have already experienced that nightmare never again I just want to play my game in peace ### 4/5 — More criteria *2025-08-11, version 5.13.0* Would like to see more criteria for handicapping options: Dropping in class Upgrading in class Wins at the track on that surface Wins at race distance Recent works ### 1/5 — Scam site *2025-05-21, version 5.7.0* tried to withdrawal my money put in $1,000 and went all in and won a 10x and had 10k but i tried to withdrawal and it says you need to add more money to withdraw ### 1/5 — Worst odds out of all apps *2025-05-20, version 5.7.0* No bonus. Worst odds in the sport. Trying to withdraw your money is a total nightmare. ### 1/5 — Complete scam! No free bets don’t waste your time *2025-05-16, version 5.7.0* Horrible! Scam!!! ### 3/5 — Making a bet *2025-05-01, version 5.6.0* When I go to make my bet it doesn’t submit it quick it takes about 15 or more seconds to do ### 1/5 — Not reliable, not legit *2025-04-22, version 5.5.1* Took my deposit and now I can no longer access the app- ### 1/5 — Worst app ever *2024-12-30, version 4.23.0* Awful unlawful disgusting app. Barely works and steals your money and won’t let you withdraw. ### 5/5 — First Bet over Twin Spires *2024-12-26, version 4.23.0* Downloads and money back into your account are faster Twin Spires! Also Churchill Downs who operates Twin Spires are not friends of racing, they demolished Arlington Park . ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — Bet some other way *2026-08-10, version 6.7.0* Already deleted the app. The web/app interface is a disaster, which shouldn't be a thing in 2026. ### 1/5 — The worst update ever *2026-07-23, version 6.7.0* Please bring back the old version, this is terrible. I like the mud breeding analysis in the old version, no it’s gone. I would rate it 0 stars if I could. ### 1/5 — This App Is Terrible *2026-07-18, version 6.7.0* Downloaded the app. Bet on the first race. After that I get location error nonsense. Fix your app! ### 1/5 — Cannot make app horizontal for iPad *2026-07-13, version 6.7.0* Having issues. I like to watch the races on horizontal view on my iPad and also having issues making full screen while watching a race. Great update but view can be better ### 1/5 — When Morons Run Companies *2026-07-04* This is the result. They pay a Chinese firm and its 10 year old programmers to come up this downgrade of a mess within a mess. Who in their right mind not only commissioned this disaster, but once seeing it thought, yes exactly what we wanted. Good grief awful!!! Nothing is easy. Make a bet and then want to repeat with slightly different combo’s, you can’t do it easily. It has changed the setting on you. Nothing like making bettors go thru extra steps as they race to make bets in the last minutes before post. How stupid can you be you don’t know your audience!!! **Developer response:** Thanks for taking the time to share your feedback on our most recent updates.

Did the fact nothing fits on the screen anymore and matter to these imbeciles? Did the fact that you need a magnifying glass to read prior race results matter to these fools? Talk about an absolute destruction of a perfectly good app! **Developer response:** Thanks for taking the time to share your feedback on our most recent updates.

You want a good horse betting app just download fanduel. This app is not worth the time. ### 1/5 — No bonuses *2025-09-28, version 5.17.1* When you add promo codes for sign up promos you never get your sign up bonus don’t bother signing up ### 1/5 — SCAM SCAM SCAM *2025-09-20, version 5.16.0* All fake promos when you join. Don’t believe that you get 200 or 250 for joining. They require that you bet 1,000 first. Beware of this money hungry app. ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — Great App *2026-03-20, version 5.27.0* Just like you’re at the track. ### 5/5 — Fun App *2026-03-17, version 5.27.0* I like the global video availability.
