Racing Betting
This platform covers races from tracks across the globe, with schedules running nearly around the clock. You’ll find local Australian racing mixed with international meetings from Japan, South Africa, and Europe, giving you chances to bet when your usual tracks aren’t running.
Getting Around the Racing Section
Next2Go keeps their racing page fairly straightforward. Races get listed by start time, with each one showing the track name, race number, and how long until post time. The tabs across the top let you jump between different days – useful when you want to plan ahead or check what’s coming up later in the week.
What sets this apart from other platforms is how much international racing they include. While most punters stick to what they know, having Japanese racing during our evening hours means there’s always something happening. The same goes for South African meetings and European tracks that run when Australian racing winds down.
Types of Racing You’ll Find
The platform doesn’t limit itself to just one racing code. Horse racing dominates the schedule, but greyhound racing gets decent representation too. This mix works well because different racing types attract different betting styles, and some punters like switching between them.
Racing Options Available:
- Standard thoroughbred racing from major Australian venues
- International horse racing from established overseas tracks
- Regular greyhound meetings with shorter race intervals
- Featured racing during major carnival periods
Betting markets change depending on the race quality and field size. Big metropolitan races usually have more exotic options like quinellas and trifectas. Smaller meetings stick to win, place, and show betting, which suits punters who prefer straightforward wagers.
Which Tracks Get Coverage
Rather than trying to cover every single meeting, Next2Go focuses on quality venues. You’ll regularly see races from Flemington, Randwick, and other top Australian tracks. Provincial venues appear when they’re hosting significant meetings or during busy racing periods.
Track Coverage Breakdown:
- Metropolitan tracks from NSW, Victoria, Queensland, and other states
- Provincial tracks during feature race days
- Japanese racing venues during their prime hours
- South African tracks throughout their racing calendar
International racing fills the gaps nicely. Japanese racing runs through our night time, which works for people who want to bet after regular racing finishes. Other overseas racing keeps things moving during traditionally quiet periods.
Racing on Mobile Devices
The mobile version handles racing betting without major compromises. All the important information – odds, race times, basic form – stays accessible on smaller screens. The interface loads quickly enough that you won’t miss bets due to slow connections.
Mobile betting becomes particularly handy during major racing carnivals. You might be at one track but still want to bet on races happening elsewhere. The platform manages this well, keeping connections stable even when lots of people are betting simultaneously.
Safety and Regulation
Next2Go holds a license from the Northern Territory Racing and Wagering Commission, which means they follow Australian gambling laws. They’ve integrated with BetStop, the national self-exclusion system, and offer various tools for managing betting habits.
Available Safety Tools:
- Deposit limits that you control
- Connection to BetStop for complete exclusion
- Links to gambling help resources
- Regular responsible gambling reminders
If gambling becomes a problem, help is available through multiple channels. Gambler’s Help operates on 1800 858 858, with online support also accessible. The platform makes these resources easy to find and encourages users to assess their gambling regularly.
