Continuing its promise to offer racing fans the most extensive, user-friendly and unrestricted racing coverage unlike anything else on the market, The Racing App – created by Quantum Leap Solutions in partnership with premium UK bookmaker Fitzdares – has bolstered its product offering with a best-in-class roll-out of US racing coverage.

US racing fans can now enjoy a premium level of content and insights to provide them with a large suite of information including full form details with past performance ratings, in-house horse-by-horse comments, market charts, value prices, form visualisers and tips. Another exciting feature is Compute, a simple-to-use unique tool offering punters a meaningful way of solving the puzzle of horse racing by quantifying at-a-glance the key factors likely to determine the outcome of a race to generate a set of “true” prices based on the data.

All this alongside some of the finest expert insight in the US racing sphere including access to The Nick Luck Daily Podcast, to which The Racing App is a proud sponsor of its US Racing segment in its quest to help UK punters make more informed decisions ahead of key US meetings. Regular analysis from respected broadcaster Cornelius Lysaght is also included.

Unlike any other known content provider in the UK and in the US, The Racing App also offers a video form guide for each upcoming US race, as well as access to live US race streams and replays.

Users can also take advantage of the app’s innovative interactive analysis tools including Speedform and unique visual Draw Charts. Through cutting-edge race simulation graphics, Speedform allows users to gain a greater understanding of how horses are expected to run not just in general but at specific sections of each race, based on speed ratings adapted from par times and conditions allowances.

In development for release later this year, users will also soon be able to select specific previous runs to feature in Speedform visuals and delve deeper into Draw Charts to see how different riding tactics affect the impact of the draw – with The Racing App showing no signs of pulling up.

Ian Heaney, CEO of Quantum Leap Solutions, said: “We’ve crammed top quality content and unique insight into one best-in-class app, something that shows how The Racing App really is the pinnacle of products for racing fans. There’s more to come too, including some even better upgrades to Speedform we’re excited to launch later this year.”

“Our benchmark for making a race interesting is the level of content and insight we offer for

British and Irish racing and we have now delivered that and more for US racing fans.”

Will Woodhams, Fitzdares CEO, said: “The concept that US racing is complicated to follow is now a myth with what The Racing App is capable of providing. Many racing fans feel they’ve never had enough data – now they have a full suite of it. In fact, with the insight and new interactive elements combined with the conformity of US racing, it’s actually a simpler puzzle to solve than UK racing and you could not ask for a more complete tool to aid your racing experience.

“To racing fans I say enjoy – and take advantage of the best racing service at your fingertips to back US winner after US winner.”

Relaunched in November 2023, The Racing App already gives racing fans a free, unrivalled one-stop-shop for their racing needs including live race streaming and all UK and Irish replays, cutting-edge data analytics, unique predictor algorithms, and world-class integrated race cards to provide racing fans with the latest and greatest data in seconds. The app also provides access to an integrated betting platform through Fitzdares.

The Racing App is available to download for free in the iOS and Android App Store. Search ‘The Racing App’ to download now.

US Racing content is available to all users with the exception of those based in the US due to local data rights.

CSMG will create and operate College Street FighterTM Tour in North America for the 2024-25 academic year
College conference Street Fighter 6 champions will punch their ticket to the national Collegiate Esports Commissioner’s Cup (CECC) & May Madness in 2025

Collegiate Sports Management Group (CSMG) announced today during the kick-off of its Collegiate Esports Commissioner’s Cup (CECC) Texas presented by McDonald’s that it has joined forces with Capcom to launch the College Street FighterTM Tour during its 2024-25 academic year with the finalists competing at CECC Texas in 2025 throughout its May Madness event. Street FighterTM 6 will join Super Smash Bros. Ultimate, Overwatch 2®, Rocket League, and VALORANT as part of the official game titles for CECC.

“We are immensely excited to welcome Capcom into the CECC family and provide a path to glory for student athletes to showcase their skills in Street Fighter 6,” said Michael Schreck, Chief Executive Officer for CSMG. “In our fourth year of building May Madness, we continue to listen to our players, coaches and fans on how to make our event more inclusive, and the partnership with Street Fighter 6 is a resounding success.”

“The Street Fighter franchise is a multi-generational and global game series, so it’s important for us to continue to grow that fandom at the collegiate level,” said Michael Larson, Head of Esports at Capcom USA. “CECC continues to set the standard for competition and community, so it’s a natural format for expansion, and we’re eager for College Street Fighter Tour competitors across North America to show off their skills and join us in Texas next year.”

”The vision for the College Street Fighter Tour is a publisher backed esports series that integrates into the existing infrastructure of The Collegiate Esports Commissioners Cup, a bracket style event series that takes place every year and has been coined May Madness. The path to championship includes invitational bids to national and regional level conferences as well as official CECC qualifiers held regionally,” said Angela Bernhard Thomas, Chief Esports Officer for CSMG’s ESPORTSU.

Every college or university from a 2-year or 4-year institution can participate through their conference or through select qualifiers. Wim Stocks will serve as the Commissioner of the College Street Fighter Tour and bring his 20 years of experience in college esports to create a dynamic and engaging format of competitive gaming.

“Since the launch of Street Fighter 6 in June of ’23, it is clear the rich legacy of Street Fighter is stronger than ever and helping lift the fighting game community to still greater heights,” said Stocks. “Having a structure now for a national collegiate competitive series, league, and events, Capcom and ESPORTSU are building a phenomenal ecosystem and mechanism for developing up and coming Street Fighter 6 competitors.”

More details on the College Street Fighter Tour will be shared later this year.

CSMG welcomes 84 teams (up from 64 in 2023) this weekend from a record breaking 19 conference champions to the largest scholastic esports festival globally. They will compete at Esports Stadium Arlington on May 3-5 for the chance to hoist one of the coveted trophies. Fans can watch the CECC Texas on ESPORTSU’s Twitch channel at https://www.twitch.tv/esportsu.

CECC Texas 2023 was also recently awarded LAN Event of the Year during the inaugural Scholars Awards in Las Vegas, which are produced in partnership with the Esports Awards.
