    I’m pretty sure they don’t Andy though they do offer live radio coverage.

    There are a number of UK bookmakers that do off the service. To name a few;

    Ladbrokes
    Bet365
    Tote
    Stan James
    William Hill…

    Some charge for the service, e.g. a hefty (IMO) £5 charge per race. Others allow you to watch for free providing you have a bet on the race. The minimum bet rule varies, e.g. Ladbrokes require you to simply stake £1 whereas for most others it’s £5.

    Other sites that are primarily television channels, such as SkySports and AtTheRaces also allow you to bet with them and watch the races they cover although you normally have to pay a monthly subscription fee – even for the online service only.

    However, most of these services, if not all, require that you are based in the U.K.

    If it works in Germany (and Exchanges aren’t illegal) you can get live racing from Betfair on all British and Irish racing.

    You will have to place a min £2.00 bet or whatever the Euro equivalent is but if you trade this at the same price it then becomes free.

    No worries Andy,

    There are a couple of ways to do this, both of which I used when I was forced to spend the first two days of Cheltenham in the U.S :shock:

    They’re both easy solutions (though one does cost roughly £100) but do require a friend in the U.K.

    If you have somebody who you think might be able to oblige let me know and I’ll give you the details. It’s very simple but there is quite an element of trust required on their side.
