What exclusive content can you expect to find?

Latest news
Some of the best journalists in racing provide you with the biggest horse racing news, which you can expect to find in the opening pages. It could be a trainer retiring, an injury announcement or just news that helps set the scene for an upcoming big race. Whatever the big news in racing, it will be found towards the front of the paper.

Previews and reports
Our experts will preview all of the big races in the racing calendar, featuring news and quotes from the key trainers on their horses. Every day – even on the quieter ones – there will be a preview of the next day’s racing action. Likewise, there are big-race reports throughout the year and every afternoon meeting is covered in the daily Talk Of The Tracks section.

Columns
A number of regular columns appear in the Racing Post and they should not be missed, with award-winning writers such as Lee Mottershead tackling the big issues in racing.

Features
Stories often go beyond the immediate news and reaction that comes out every day. Feature articles, sometimes across multiple days, cover broader issues or themes affecting the racing industry. Each Sunday a group of features are combined to make up the popular Racing Post Sunday section.

Tipping
Expert tipping comes from some of the best tipsters around. Headline acts Pricewise and Paul Kealy feature regularly in the tipping section, with well-known names such as Pietro Innocenzi, Graeme Rodway and David Jennings ensuring there is strength in depth.

Furthermore, each day our regional experts provide their best bets from all the meetings in the daily Tips Box section.

Bloodstock
The Racing Post provides a vital service to the racing industry and the Bloodstock section is an essential daily digest for many of the paper’s readers. There is a designated section, bringing you the latest news from some of the biggest breeding operations in the world and the latest sales news.

Cards
Racecards are an essential part of the Racing Post newspaper. Every runner is highlighted in full colour, along with relevant information such as trainer, jockey, owners, form, age, weight, rating, breeding, saddle cloth number and more. This is the basis of in-depth form study for the day’s racing.

Form and Statistics
The traditional newspaper form has stood the test of time, with in-depth analysis of previous races for every runner on the card with a short description of how the race played out. The newspaper is packed with statistics and ratings to help you find more winners. Some of the most insightful information can be found in jockey statistics, trainer statistics, racecourse statistics, track rating and previous winners.

Greyhounds
Much like the racing side of the paper, the greyhound section features the latest news, previews, cards and results from the sport of greyhounds.

Sport
At the back of the newspaper, you will find a dedicated sports section with the latest previews, betting advice and opinions for the biggest events in sport. Our team of experts will help you keep up with the best sporting action and top betting advice in football, golf, tennis and much more.

### 1/5 — Absolutely dreadful

*2026-05-30*

Why oh why have they created this new 2026 update? Everyone including racing professionals and the media are unhappy with these developments. I shall be cancelling my subscription and instead using ATR website with its considerably enhanced platform, all for free. Many of the tipster are lousy, never declare profit or losses. Who would want to take tips from youngsters, who know nothing of betting or racing?The racing post in print has long had its day, too expensive and the online platform is going the same way. Arrogance, incompetency and ignorance attitudes towards your customers will be your downfall.

### 1/5 — This is a rubbish App. I only want the Football edition. Get a grip.

*2025-07-28*

As above

### 3/5 — Why £49.95

*2025-04-26, version 7.0.0*

The newspaper itself is fine but my ipad shows its cost as £49.95 and this only changes late morning of the day in question. I obviously dont buy it until correct price shows. Please sort this out.

### 2/5 — Often does not work for me

*2024-07-20*

In recent weeks, it has been very difficult to make this app work, and, even when it does, the paper can suddenly disappear. Needs improvement.

### 1/5 — Awful

*2024-06-22*

Crash crash crash, awful app. Avoid or pay through the nose for inferior content

### 1/5 — Worst APP ever!

*2024-06-08*

Incompetent system frequently fails to load the newspaper to access single purchases. Constantly having to delete app and reload to be able to purchase the edition. Occasions when the app takes your money and still fails to download the paper. Despite constantly advising them of their system failures they are unable to improve matters. Pitiful.

### 1/5 — Incredibly Bad

*2023-11-01, version 7.0.0*

A useless app - tries to charge £39.99 instead of £3.99 for one issue . Keeps repeating this fault ! Absolutely clueless

### 1/5 — Price error

*2023-10-08, version 7.0.0*

Yet again the price for the daily edition is set in error at £39.99 instead of £3.99. Happens to often. It’ll change back eventually

### 1/5 — Absolute garbage

*2023-07-11*

Every few months it crashes and I permanently lose all downloaded content even though my settings are on “never delete”. Seriously had enough after years of underfunding and apathy from the owners.

### 4/5 — Latest app version still frustrating

*2022-01-17*

The latest version of this app is eminently inferior to its efficient predecessor. Obviously designed for phones and not ipads, it assumes one wants to read in portrait, not landscape, mode and I have had continuous problems with the menu bar which should make navigation easier but in fact frustrates me daily. The page options offered in the bar most often only consist of "inside front cover" or "inside back cover" which means one has to scroll endlessly to find the required topic or page. The old version of the app enabled one simply to request a page number and go there directly - now you cannot.  Racing Post Help say no one else has reported this issue, so why is it happening to me?
