XB Net adds harness racing to its portfolio of betting content
It will partner with Yonkers Raceway for a $1m International Trot event this weekend.
XB Net, a provider of North American horseracing content, has added to its distributional package with the inclusion of harness racing to its portfolio. Harness racing is a form of racing in which horses race at a specific gait while pulling a two-wheeled cart.
New York’s Yonkers Raceway is one of XB Net’s main partners, along with other international operator partners. Yonkers Raceway hosts regular horseracing events including three major harness events each year: the Yonkers Trot, the Art Rooney Pace and the Messenger Stakes.
This weekend, the race track hosts the $1m International Trot, which welcomes a host of global challengers from Europe, who will take on the best trotters from North America.
The Yonkers International Trot (Race 7) is run over a distance of one and a half miles and is scheduled for 3PM EDT on October 15. It will be the first leg of a $20,000 Guaranteed Late Pick 4, also including the $250,000 Aria Pace and Robert Miecuna Trot Invitationals.
The deal between XB Net and Yonkers Raceway is emblematic of continued cooperation between the horseracing content provider and the New York Racing Association’s (NYRA) content management solutions subsidiary (NCMS). They will share content rights, data, odds and signals from a host of horseracing venues.
XB Net SVP International Simon Fraser commented: “We’re delighted to be offering our partners more high-quality racing action from another fabled New York venue in Yonkers Raceway. It has a loyal and active following, and provides an exciting area into which some can broaden and diversify their content timetables.
“Wherever you set your scene on the map, securing the right content at peak leisure times remains of paramount importance. XB Net’s wide range of low-latency racing solutions, racetracks and varied codes of racing is continuing to deliver the requisite flexibility that international operators demand.”
XB Net works with wagering companies such as Flutter Entertainment, William Hill, Playtech and Entain to provide bettors with quality horseracing content and live odds.
