How to navigate the racebook
Navigation of FanDuel Racing is very easy and straightforward. There is pertinent information on the landing page, but not too much, so it is far from jumbled. There is a Log In/Sign Up green button at the top right-hand side of the screen
The main links to scroll over are at the bottom of the page in tracks, my bets (a bet slip), promos and more. Clicking on “more” will take you to the page where you can find a lot of important information.
It is here you will find the other links to tutorials, results, FanDuel FAQ, privacy policy, terms and conditions, and wagering responsibly.
FanDuel Racing features
There are many features at the FanDuel racebook, and some of them can really help out the bettor. To this point, it has links on the landing page to help with understanding the odds and understanding bet types.
There is a lot of great information in these links, which can really help bettors know the horse race game inside and out.
Besides the links on the landing page to help bettors, FanDuel goes even further by offering tutorials. It offers a tutorial about the races it streams live, showing you exactly what you need to do to watch the races it has odds posted on in real time.
On top of that, it has a “Learning the Basics” tutorial, which shows you all you need to know when it comes to horse racing and, more specifically, betting on horse racing.
One of the best features of FanDuel Racing is the many races it streams live. However, as of March 2020, live streaming is not available for desktop users.
At the time of this writing, the live streaming is only available on tablets and mobile devices.
If you are looking for stats and results, then FanDuel Racing has you covered. When you click on the “more” link at the bottom of the page, you will see several other links that have been mentioned, with one being results.
Clicking on that will show you all the tracks, and then by clicking on a certain track, you can see all of the races that have posted results.
The tutorials section is where you will find not only all the information about live streaming races but the tutorial to help learn the basics. This is not only a great tool for learning the horse racing game but also shows you how to find the statistics for horses.
The “Learning the Basics” tutorial takes you through a five-step process:
- Learn how to select a horse: Here you can look at racing stats and data in helping you to make a winning selection.
- Tap on a horse to see its stats: When you are on the program page for a specific race, you can simply tap on the name of the horse in the race, and its stats will be shown.
- Opening odds and odds trend: The opening odds are the initial odds the horse had on the day it was in a race. The trend will show a horse’s previous three odds.
- Power rating and high speed: The power rating will show you a horse and how it has fared in terms of its speed, class and pace. This is a solid tool to use to compare horses. The high speed will tell you how fast a certain horse has been in previous races.
- Win% and Top 3%: The Win% is a great tool letting you know how often a certain horse has won in its previous races. The Top 3% lets you know how often a certain horse has finished in the top three positions in previous races.
