The Irish Tote will offer betting options on all Hong Kong Jockey Club races with immediate effect. The Hong Kong Jockey Club holds 88 meetings per year with the highest per-race betting turnover in the world, which typically reaches in excess of €20-million. Irish players will initially be allowed to bet into the win, place and tierce (trifecta) pools.
Niamh McManus, partner manager with Tote, said, “We are delighted to be able to offer our customers the opportunity to bet into the huge Hong Kong Jockey Club pools. As the first Irish- based operator to offer this, we have seen strong interest from our regular customers in Hong Kong betting and expect it to be an instant success. We also believe it gives Tote the opportunity to reach a new audience and introduce them to our wider range of products.”
