Virtual Horse Racing is an exciting way to experience the thrill of a race. From stuyding the form, to watching the race with a jockey cam, you can enjoy virtual racing now in ways that could only be imagined a few years ago.
Virtual horse racing is one of the most popular virtual sports markets in the UK in retail bookmakers, online and on mobile. Industry estimates suggest that c. 25% of horse racing bets are placed on virtual races at top bookmakers. As a result, games development firms like Inspired Gaming have invested heavily in fully regulated horse racing games that they then sell on to the top bookmakers that allow punters to bet on races and enjoy the thrill of researching form, placing a bet and watching the action unfold.
Virtual Horse Racing Technology
When we first started covering virtual horse racing graphics were basic at best. Today, it is sometimes difficult to distinguish the graphics from real horse races! Providers of virtual horse racing games have created their own tracks for bookmakers and they allow you to view the action just like you would on TV including jockey cams so that you can see how your runner is doing relative to the competition.
Virtual Racing Game Types
Bookmakers license virtual racing games from two key providers – Betradar and Inspired Gaming who each have products that cover flat racing, sprints, National Hunt and the Grand National.
- Sprints Races are available with 8, 10 or 12 runners and can run during the day or night. Events are scheduled frequently with Races lasting 20 seconds

When you bet on a virtual horse race you can study each runner’s historic form. In contrast to normal horse racing betting you will be presented with fixed odds and there will never be a non-runner. You will also be able to inspect the horses prior to the off.

How do you know that Virtual Racing is fair?
All virtual games providers on UK bookmaker sites are licensed by the UK Gambling Commission. They must demonstrate that the results of the races are determined by algorithms that select winners based on a true Random Number Generator. That means bookmakers cannot tweak the odds and the return to player percentages on virtual racing are disclosed (you’ll find RTPs are around 96-97% on virtuals).
