From what I understand I believe it’s illegal for anyone within the US to do any form of betting over the internet. So if you are in the US then you are stuffed.
I don’t know how this law applies to US citizens abroad (some US laws seem to apply to every citizen no matter where they live!) as I haven’t seen the small print.
Then there is the matter of getting your bet on. American Express, for example, have stopped their cards being used on gambling sites. There’s been a few other ones like this too and I read the other day that Capital One have announced the same.
So, the next issue is to get yourself a non-US credit or debit card.
As for you Canadian question I would imagine that if you’re not in the US then this would be legal. After all, the Queen is on their currency and it would be a poor show if one couldn’t back her horses.

Sadly I missed the last, um, four goals. So, I shall correct myself. Until that point until which I turned over the game was dire.
I expect that with four goals the game showed more vim and vigour than it did in the first.
Back to the programme. I thought that Jenny cut a sympathetic figure until the final post-mortem thing and then I just thought that she deserved what she got.
Currie struck me as intelligent and someone whose company I could enjoy as was her husband. McCirick, I’m afraid to say was rude; when I have guests I try to ensure that I’m not eating a chicken curry in bed alone whilst they are in the dining room.
I’ve tried to like the fellow in the past and, if I could just listen past his rantings, I could find something that I could appreciate in what he said.
What he’s doing can’t be good for racing’s image; being a Character is one thing but being the Court Jester or Fool doesn’t mean that one has has to be an idiot.
Enough of this; there’s the delights of Tralee to trawl through for tomorrow.
Night all.
i only ended up watching it as the footie was awful.<br> <br>I dare say that programme didn’t make him any, if any, friends whatsoever. But what does astound me is ‘his office’. I find it hard to believe that he is able to work and study there. Perhaps he doesn’t but even my office here looks remotely like one.
It was an interesting diversion from the football and I have to say that the man has gone down even further in my estimation than before.
Quote: from lucky jack on 1:07 am on Sep. 20, 2006[br]i joined up to the setanta/racing uk package £15 monthly but still waiting for the racing uk club pack<br>have made 5 calls each time was told it would be put in post<br>setanta customer service is the pits<br>
<br>I just received my Racing UK members badge for 2006 after a five phone calls and one letter.
I think that their problem is that their computer can’t handle my address; it just has a house name and the town; no street and no house number. When I got the pack (without the badge and membership number details) all it had on the outside was my name and my postcode.
It will be interesting if or when I receive the next lot of tickets.

I’ve just been informed by Amazon that my copy is being prepared for dispatch right now.
Dawkins’ views are refreshing after listing to my (ex) wife’s nonsensical religious zealot bleatings.
I’m looking forward to reading this one.
Gus, perhaps yes and also perhaps as excrable as my spelling at times.
Aragorn, yes. But that’s neither here nor there as I am here wearing another hat. And whilst on here I will be wearing this hat and not t’other.
Colin, thanks for the welcome. Yes, you do right to be cynical as that was my first post here.
But, no, I have no connection with Horse Talk at all other than that I will no doubt end up subscribing.
Of course, if I were the publisher then you’d expect me to say that, wouldn’t you?
Best wishes<br> – Malc
I don’t agree that SMARTsig’s time was up. As more and more information is readily available and people have better tools to crunch numbers I would say that SMARTsig is sadly missed.
I get Racing Ahead each month from my local newsagent rather than subscription (support one’s local tradesman and all that) and I find that it does have more than it’s fair share of filler. At least that excretable cartoon has gone but does anyone really need a one page badly drawn characterture of Lord Derby?
Racing Review I used to subscribe to and I didn’t miss it when it folded. I found the picture section where it would fawn to Lord and Lady Inbred of Berkshire appalling and cringeworthy.
One that I am warming to isn’t a paper printed magazine but a PDF publication. This is Horse Talk and for £2.50 seems to be good value and is sent directly from the publishers. I expect that I will be subscribing to this one.
Odds On I used to get and didn’t enjoy too much whilst I note that The Inside Edge is now a magazine for young women and not quite what it used to be.
