Racing1 debuts ICE Barcelona stand; launches Wagering Competition to win premium prizes!
Racing1, the brand name for the recently formed Strategic Alliance between 1/ST CONTENT, Arena Racing Company (ARC), Racecourse Media Group (RMG) and Tabcorp, is all set to make its conference debut at ICE Barcelona later this month. It will showcase its live racing package and product offering, including Racing1 Markets – the racing one-stop shop solution – at Stand 5E38.
Furthermore, all ICE delegates who visit the stand will be invited to enter a free-to-play Wagering Competition with an opportunity to scoop some jaw-dropping prizes. Further details on the competition and its winner’s circle will be unveiled the week before the summit begins (20-22 January).
Having already launched its 24/7 horse and greyhound racing service to immediate acclaim with Moroccan powerhouse SOREC, Racing1 can now arrange an instructive demonstration for any would-be or existing operator partners who stop by Stand 5E38 on a must-attend week at the Fira Barcelona Gran Via to view its world-leading racing from across the globe, and assess the merits of integrating a highly flexible racing package via one contract and one simple integration (iFrame or existing API).
Racing1’s compelling daily timetable of engaging racing action from around the world (UK, North and South America, Turkey, Australia, New Zealand and South Africa) boasts a 24/7 chronology to seamlessly complement any sportsbook, icasino, lottery or bingo programme across any time-zone, supplying global partners with a reliable source of fast-settling betting content at varied viewing windows throughout diverse territories.
Via the Racing1 brand, 1/ST CONTENT, ARC, RMG and Tabcorp are deploying their combined expertise to deliver targeted, localised solutions that appeal to assorted audiences and their respective betting proclivities, whether they’re already familiar with racing, or new to the sport and in need of more educational content.
Racing1’s new business targets for ICE Barcelona:
- Online casino platforms / non-sportsbook operators (e.g. bingo-poker-lottery)
- Online sportsbooks platforms / operators who are looking to offer racing for the first time
- Online sportsbooks platforms / operators who offer racing but are looking to outsource or improve risk-management, enhance product and margins
- Online operators or platforms looking to enhance or add content to their existing racing offering
- Retail outlets looking to add live racing to their portfolio
Jack Whitaker, spokesperson for Racing1 and Commercial Manager at ARC, said: “We can’t wait to welcome the industry to our flagship stand at the corner of Exhibition Hall 5, where we will demonstrate how Racing1 has conveniently crystallised a once-entangled worldwide web of racing rights into one package, enabling simpler consumption which is crucial in non-domestic markets. Via Racing1’s subsidiary product, Racing1 Markets, we can also demonstrate our one-stop-shop 24/7 racing solution, available in one simple contract and integration via our new iFrame, or existing API solution.
“Racing can be complicated, particularly for those unfamiliar with the space, and a key driver behind Racing1 is to simplify integration and contractual efforts for customers, whilst offering a fully outsourced 24/7 industry-leading offering direct to platforms and operators. It also signals Racing1’s wider intent to return better value to racing’s key stakeholders through more international deals, not merely through the domestic operators where racing is seen as a more traditionally consumed sport.
“So, stop by our stand or arrange a meeting with one of our helpful team to see how Racing1 benefits consumers and operators alike – with a complete racing package via one contract and one integration.”

SLOT MACHINE MANUFACTURER ZITRO UNVEILS NEW SLOTS FEATURING LIGHTING SYSTEMS TIMED TO GAME SEQUENCES
Casino goers enjoy slot machines for a whole host of reasons. Some enjoy their tried-and-true favorite games. Some people like discovering new games. Gaming manufacturer, Zitro, has just introduced slot games enclosed in a new cabinet called CONCEPT that synchronizes its Magic Lighting system to elements of the game and what a player sees on the screen.
Zitro launched the system at Pechanga Resort Casino just outside Temecula, California. Pechanga is among the first casinos in California to feature the CONCEPT cabinet and its upgraded and inviting technology. Pechanga guests can try their luck on Zitro’s Legendary Sword slot game, a medieval-themed, multi-game players like for immersive gameplay and standout features such as a four-level jackpot link, mystery-activated bonuses, and special in-game powers such as “Honor,” which multiplies rewards, “Glory,” which grants extra lives, and the “Magic Sword,” which doubles Link symbols on the boosted column. Players can experience up to seven Bonus Links, making each spin feel like part of an epic quest.
“We are committed to offering the best in gaming entertainment,” said Alex Rodriguez, Vice President of Slot Operations at Pechanga Resort Casino. “The CONCEPT cabinet and Legendary Sword slot machine bring incredible visual impact. We think our guests will love the new technology that brings all the elements of the game and the cabinet together.”
“We truly appreciate Pechanga’s continued trust in Zitro,” said Derik Moobery, CEO of Zitro USA. “Bringing the CONCEPT cabinet to Pechanga is a proud moment for us.

Attendees of the initial sessions noted positive anecdotal outcomes.
EPIC Global Solutions announced a new partnership with Underdog to further the sports gaming operator’s investment in responsible gaming education through a series of training and workshops.
As part of the partnership, customer-facing Underdog employees participated in gaming harm awareness sessions and VIP relationships workshops presented by EPIC staff, increasing Underdog staff’s ability to recognize potentially problematic gaming behaviors in their customers.
The sessions were led by consultants who shared their own experience of how different forms of gaming proved problematic in their lives, including former NCAA and NBA point guard Stevin ‘Hedake’ Smith and former boxer Liz Thielen, and provided Underdog staff the chance to explore the human side of harm through a gaming-neutral lens.
EPIC’s VP North America Teresa Fiore noted: “We’re very pleased with the positive start to our working relationship with Underdog. They have a deep understanding that responsible gaming practices must be at the core for any major operator, and it’s a constant and consistent process of learning and attentiveness. It’s clear from the session feedback that the responsible gaming message we share – influenced by the lived experience of our team – is making a difference to Underdog’s staff in a way that will further enhance their communication and customer relationships in a positive way.”
The training and workshops promoted business sustainability and customer protection by exploring communication techniques and best practices to foster healthy customer relationships.
“Partnering with EPIC has reinforced the culture of responsible gaming that we are building at Underdog,” said Adam Warrington, Vice President of Responsible Gaming at Underdog. “We look forward to furthering the understanding of responsible gaming within Underdog and continuing to participate in training sessions and workshops to deepen our player protection knowledge.”
Attendees noted positive anecdotal outcomes, such as learning ‘the nuances of messaging’ and how to ‘dive deeper to get to the bottom of what messaging could be problematic’ and taking the message of ‘direct experiences to help understand how people are impacted’.
