Twinspires vs. XpressBet vs. Other??

[playersclub22]

Hey all, New member here....I've always loved wagering in Horse Racing (usually at the nearest track) but it's time for me to move in the digital age. Just wondering which service you all use/recommend for playing the ponies.

The only requirements I have would be access to streaming video online, preferably a site with a decent smartphone app, and mandatory the ability to play exotics pools at the tracks (pick 6, pick 4, daily dbl.'s etc.)

From the little research I've done I've seen it's between Twinspires and XpressBet or one of the offshoots run by either (I've been looking into DRF Bets run by XpressBet) but just asking for what you guys are using and why.

Anyways looking forward to contributing in some contests and handicapping discussions on board..good luck to all and thanks in advance for your suggestions.

Twinspires is great for all that. I didnt care for drf bets the way its set up.

Twinspires video wins hands down in my opinion.
I find even if I wager elsewhere .. I generally watch the video from there.

I use betamerica.com but i was told by many people that twinspires is the best all around! I'm considering moving there soon.

Lately Twin Spires videos freeze up alot. Maybe that happens when the activity is high.

Derby Day for sure, video is always choppy. But other than that, they are pretty solid. But rebates are weak.

I use xpressbet and am happy with the service.

Twinspires is the major player for horse racing bettors. I believe they are hooked up in some way with Churchill Downs owners.

My only complaint is lately the videos have been freezing up ...could be signal from the tracks tho.

Twin spires video is the best setup. I do like both wagering places. Have had no problems with either. Looking to try drf.

I am a member at twinspires and xpressbet. I prefer xpressbet myself, but they are both good.

The one negative about xpressbet is that it doesn't work correctly on my droid. Going to their webpage you can get to the wagering, but the phone will only allow for one pop up and therefore I can't get to the final betting screen. I believe they have an app for the iphone though.

They are both free to join. I would sign up for both...

Churchill owns TwinSpires, thus the name

Living in England - can I sign up and gamble with TwinSpires - or is it only for American bank account holders ?

Xpressbet rocks as if you bet at a track and buy pps through their system they will refund you the money for the pps.
