Statement from 4Racing Chief Digital Officer, James Saulez, regarding TABONLINE

The interface should be user friendly and adaptable for mobile phones. Track and Ball which is part of Tabgold, to me has the most easiest navigation to wager a Tote bet. Its not an "Open Bet" and it gets placed directly with the Tote. Hollywood is similar with their direct Tote offering.

Let's get back to racing - I too find the LQP thing this year a bit confusing - and to Mac, I think a 'normal' racegoer is defined in the negative - NOT a trainer, NOT an owner (not sure if this refers to owners with runners on the day only), NOT a jockey, and NOT a sponsor (on the day I assume) - so in other words the usual plebs (meant in the nicest way) who frequents the Totes (I assume there are still Totes ?) and likes to attend the odd race-day now and again.

What I find confusing, is that on the one hand they seem to be saying that only owners, trainers and sponsors are allowed on the day, but on the other hand, they seem to be saying that 'normal' racegoers can also attend, they just can't mix with the owners and trainers etc who will be housed 'upstairs' - oh wait, but NOBODY is allowed 'downstairs' (in the open air - where we are told you are much less likely to contract the dreaded virus) - so where do the 'normal' folk go - and how much are they charged - and how many of them (given COVID regs) are allowed, if at all?

All very confusing - luckily I am not contemplating attending the 'festival' - I'll watch from the comfort of my couch - beer and snacks tend to be cheaper in my lounge anyway :dry:
