switzerland Posted May 15, 2012 Share Posted May 15, 2012 Re: Horse alerts The ATR tracker is very good - it allows you enter comments which is great. Someone on this forum recommended it a while ago which put me onto it. I used some of the other sites to get alerts but without comments I sometimes couldn't remember the reason I tracked the horse in the first place. ATR emails you your comments and a short form update as well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bathtime For Rupert Posted May 15, 2012 Share Posted May 15, 2012 Re: Horse alerts I've always just used GG.com for this. If I forget why I have them on there, I'll just watch the race again and it usually clicks for me. I guess if I started it now I'd go ATR but if it ain't broke...

TheRat Posted May 15, 2012 Share Posted May 15, 2012 Re: Horse alerts Why? You can enter comments, and decide how long you want the alert for, plus you get Timeform comments too. On top of that I am completely biased But yea, as a punter it is better than gg and Nagme reagrdless imo Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Saint Posted September 3, 2012 Share Posted September 3, 2012 Re: Horse alerts http://www.sportinglife.com/racing/my-stable No idea if this is any good - think you need a Skybet account and if you can keep one of them open you are doing better than me!

ONEDUNME Posted September 3, 2012 Share Posted September 3, 2012 Re: Horse alerts I agree the ATR tracker is good. The Sportinglife one (the free one anyway) is a waste of time as you can't add comments and there is a limit of 25 horses or something. I like the idea that you can add trainers and jockeys on the GG one but do you have to pay for it? This is why I ask DISCLAIMER Please note that this service is available on all major UK and Irish networks and is supplied by a third party SMS provider. GG.COM cannot be held responsible for non delivery due to circumstances out of our control. SMS alerts cost £0.50 per message. To stop receiving SMS alerts text GG ALERT STOP to 60060.

jayalexander Posted September 3, 2012 Share Posted September 3, 2012 Re: Horse alerts You have the option of having them sent by SMS, however, as long as you don't give them your number they won't be texting you and you'll receive them by email.

beaker1 Posted September 3, 2012 Share Posted September 3, 2012 Re: Horse alerts taken from the sporting life Sportinglife.com is proud to launch our new service My Stable meaning you need never miss another runner from your favourite horses, trainers and jockeys. You can put your stable together using the search facility and we'll send you an email alert the day before any of the horses are due to run - or your chosen trainers and jockeys that have declared runners and mounts. We'll also store all the news clippings for your team in a dedicated section of the site along with Racing UK video replays of their runs and a full run down of results and entries. For obvious reasons My Stable must be behind a log-in so all you need to do to access the My Stable section is provide your Sky Bet log-in details, as you do for Super Six or Fantasy Football - or follow the simple instructions to join on theMy Stable home page. By clicking on Your Selections you can amend your stable easily by deleting any additions you no longer want in your list while you also have the option not to receive an email if you are happy to monitor your stable yourself. The best thing is My Stable is absolutely FREE so what are you waiting for? Put together YOUR stable right now. should be use-full Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bartrum Posted September 4, 2012 Share Posted September 4, 2012 Re: Horse alerts Atr do one of these for upto 100 horses which is very easy to use. Also useful to have all the form and stats etc on the same site... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
robertob Posted September 4, 2012 Share Posted September 4, 2012 Re: Horse alerts Do like the ATR one. Easy to use and very useful indeed with the comment function. Only down side is, that you do get the mails where you'll get informed about horses of your list running the next day, pretty late. Usually around 0.00-01.00 in the morning. What is too late for me as I do my research usually at work the afternoon before for the next day's racing actually. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
miloacademy Posted September 10, 2012 Share Posted September 10, 2012 Re: Horse alerts According to my experience If you have a horse in your stable that’s set to run we’ll send you an alert between 4-5am on the day it’s running – giving you plenty of time to place a bet.

The Rat, get onto them about sending the emails out earlier. And deleting horses from your list, you can only do one at a time which takes a while if you want to delete a few.

Should be a tick box to be able to delete a load at once. Blimey, I thought I was impatient:lol. It's two clicks, one on the dustbin and one to confirm. Takes around five seconds and, given you can only have 100 in total, how often are you going to have to delete a large amount in one go?

south_eastern_ram Posted September 10, 2012 Share Posted September 10, 2012 Re: Horse alerts :lol Well sometimes when i havent checked the list in a while and want to delete 5-10 horses, you've got to delete them one at a time, then scroll all the way back down again.

Betfair is a prime example. It gets worse with every "improvement". Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Should be a tick box to be able to delete a load at once. The character limit is pretty annoying, absolutely. I would have much more to write in most cases. Found now a good alternative though. www.racebets.com offers to save your "favourites" as well. You can write as much as you want in to the box and you get informed via mail about your runners an afternoon in advance, what is really useful I think. Only downside is you have to remove horses yourself. There is no function to say you want the horse only for the next run or for the next three runs on your list.

Greenback Posted February 24, 2013 Share Posted February 24, 2013 Re: Horse alerts Does anyone know how i can get horse alerts sent to me for International racing,eg Australian,and USA.

robertob Posted February 24, 2013 Share Posted February 24, 2013 Re: Horse alerts Racebets.com. You can save your favourites for almost every country in the world... at least from all the countries they offer odds for, and that's quite a lot. Works very well, they send you a day before the actual race of your horse a mail. Highly recommendable service. You don't need to have money on your account btw...

I did read the thread - and have signed up for some of those mentioned. As some of the posts were quite old I was just asking for "up to date thoughts" i.e any new ones or ones that have improved or indeed got worse/unreliable.
