NYRA Website

[PhantomOnTour]

I guess I'll be that guy...what is up with the new website?
I want to find the entries for Saturday's card and I cannot find that info.

Is this new look just for the Saratoga meet or will this be permanent?
I used to be able to access the Belmont and Aqueduct section of the website (even during the Sar meet) but cannot find that either.

Good Lord, why? :faint:

[Racetrack Playa]

Oh Wow . They must have switched it today,
A bit inconvenient for sure, we can only hope it works
Click racing and scroll down , no connections on the entry list :bang:

Good Luck POT

[titans1127]

Looks nice but thats about it. Pretty much can't find anything. Found the entries for Friday but it looks so half ass there are no jockeys listed or morning line odds.

I'm just really waiting on NYRABets to launch at this point.

[cj]

I'm sure they'll get it all ironed out soon enough. That said, they should have had it up and running the second the last race at Belmont was official to get the bugs worked out and give people time to adjust.

[thespaah]

I can't find where to click to watch the race replays.
I found the entries. But just for Friday. No longer can you click on a calendar to pick the date yourself. That's nonsense.
The absence of the video replay button is some thing that MUST be fixed.
The previous version of the NYRA website was just fine.
Why this?
If there is one major peeve I have is "change for the sake of change"....This is a fine example of what NOT to do....
My motto... "if it ain't broke, don't fix it"...

[thespaah]

I found a button that says "replays and videos"...All I get when I click on that is the 5th race from Sunday at Belmont. It shows about 35 seconds of the race replay then the screen freezes.
All of the options to watch replays are gone. There is no way to view race results either.
Entries list numbers and horses. No riders or connections.
No race conditions either.
Not good.

[thespaah]

I'm sure they'll get it all ironed out soon enough. That said, they should have had it up and running the second the last race at Belmont was official to get the bugs worked out and give people time to adjust.
They are going to have to bring this one to the dry cleaners. If ya get my meaning.
Major stuff wrong with the new version.
Hopefully the bugs will be worked out by Friday.

[SG4]

Not to mention the new NYRA Bets platform appears to return at best 1/3 the rebate amount NYRA Rewards did. If you weren't a customer before July 14 (where accounts are grandfathered in at previous reward amounts), you are screwed

[Tom]

Not many people have good websites.
DRF is the worst by far, have not looked at NYRA, but was no fan of the old one, so I hardly ever went there.

BRIS is at the top - everything you need easily found and no changes in decades.

I can only suppose track people have nephews and such who can't get jobs and hire them to be "web designers."

[no breathalyzer]

''Plus, you can get all NYRA Race Replays in HD!''


Can someone confirm this please? Do i have to wager thru them to get access to the HD replays? Is it really HD?

[Alwaysonpoint36]

Grandfathered for the month or indefinitely?

The new rebate schedule is awful and too similar to tvg.
Bet $1250 get $5? That is insultingly cheap. They ****ed this all up. :ThmbDown:

[PhantomOnTour]

To get back on topic a little bit...

They've done some work on it because I can now find the Sat entries.
No clue about replays or how to access the Aqu and Bel sections

[AlBundy33]

There should be an arrow right next to the Saratoga logo in the upper left hand corner of the page, where it'll show a drop down menu that can take you to Belmont's and Aqueduct's pages.

[Tom]

Just looked at it - very poor quality.
Why is TRAKUS listed under Entries?

Too much thin, faint red drowning in white.

[mannyberrios]

I just signed in, and it's working now

[thespaah]

So I click on the arrow below where it says Saratoga which produces a drop down menu. I click on Belmont and it is the previous site design.

Hover over the CALENDAR tab, a meet calendar will appear, then click on the date you want and scroll to the bottom of the page. Entries should be on the bottom left.

[jk3521]

Almost 11:45 and no video on the NYRA website. I guess I have to watch the pre - race on Twinspires.

We know...

You're An Andy Serling Fan.....But....


:lol: :lol: :lol:

[Tom]

Assuming it worked, does anyone see anything that would be an improvement over what they had?

[cj]

And meanwhile Andy Serling is hiding.


Pretty sure Andy isn't in charge of the web site.

That said, I guarantee you he isn't hiding. He is extremely busy during the Saratoga meeting. He is doing Talking Horses, Saratoga Live, and handicapping cards for six day race weeks.

[cj]

No way to really know until it actually works, but doesn't look any better to my eye.

[AlBundy33]

Not even close.

[no breathalyzer]

there is about a 30 second delay on the feed now

Can't watch the replay of talking horses or the live feed for me.

How do these people have jobs still?

:bang: :bang: :bang:

[woodbinepmi]

I've got nothing, leave it to NYRA to screw up a good thing.

[Dahoss9698]

I'm waiting for Superpickle to tell us this is the best website NYRA has had in 20 years

[SaratogaSteve]

turned a great site into an abortion. No program listing w/ owners or pedigrees, where do I see the full charts? What am I missing?

[no breathalyzer]

Dear NYRA, please fix the 35 second delay on the live video feed.. when the TVG feed is ahead of yours its a problem... Your site is a disaster and has become pretty much useless.

[bucksboy]

I still can't get any video on my laptop. Works fine on my phone, but not
my computer.

[no breathalyzer]

the feed on my adw isn't working today :D

[woodbinepmi]

Still nothing here. Good job NYRA!

[PaceAdvantage]

And meanwhile Andy Serling is hiding.It's like you lie in wait for days like these...super scary

[jk3521]

I'm starting to get used to the new site.

[EMD4ME]

One suggestion, for NYRA.com, not NYRA bets:

When I'm watching HD replays, I can't rewind the race & fast forward. Waste of time obviously to rewatch something entirely (including the 2 minute load) twice/10X just to see what happened over and over.

If anyone has some power out there, please note this.

[AltonKelsey]

Not sure why they injected a 30 second delay, I don't think it was nearly that bad downstate.

Googling streaming delay , its not so cut and dry as one might think, but still, there must be an issue here we didn't see at Belmont/Aqu

Do they realize that people are likely getting shut out of BETS , which is costing NYRA money, because they think the last horse hasn't loaded, when in fact they have already run a 1/4 mile?

When I was at AQU yesterday, I was watching on the TV (not my PC) on the HD channel.

I was shut out multiple times on certain wagers as the race was off but I thought the last horse was still nowhere near in.

I caught on after race 1 but it was extremely aggravating as I am a late bettor.

[Rise Over Run]

Your product was already the best in the business. Why reinvent it? Just make improvements where needed. I guess nobody ever heard of the New Coke debacle from the 80s. I really want to defend NYRA, because their product is top notch, but this is bad, really bad. The website sucks.

Oh why oh why couldn't this have been posted a day earlier! Fell victim to the surprising delay (10 seconds or so?) on the HD TV channel when trying to get a nice sized wager in on eventual 20-1 winner Gap Year, nothing worse than seeing the bet not accepted message come up & then watching a longshot like that gut out the victory, will haunt me for awhile. And I pretty much never bet last second like that, so particularly frustrating to endure (not to mention it coinciding with a brutal month-long losing streak, just piling on at this point).

there was never a delay until this new site .. a couple seconds maybe at most.. hope they plan on fixing this.. its got to be costing them a considerable amount of $$$

[cj]

Finally figured out how to find replays (probably me being slow), but do I really have to wait two minutes to watch the start of a head on without the ability to fast forward or drag to the actual start? Horrible.

It took me FOUUUUUUURRRRR HOOOUUURRRSSSS last night to rewatch all of Monday's replays and take notes on every horse thanks to their inability to offer a fast forward & rewind button.

:bang: :bang: :bang: :bang: :bang: :bang: :bang: :bang:

I utilize RTN for HD access but those buffoons don't give access to replays till the next day.

If you're trying to catch up on replays the next day during a 6 day a week meet, you're in trouble.

This whole industry makes me mad, when you compare it to real industries.

[AltonKelsey]

Seems to be some kind of pattern here.

Yahoo Finance, around for decades now, underwent a remake, and NO ONE in the world likes what they did.

Change for changes sake without usability testing is lame

[EMD4ME]

Thank god for RTN as a consolation prize but even they suck as they don't carry HD head ons.

I want to see jock's slightly turning their heads left and right and the extent of their choppy choke outs. Head ons are vital for that.

So :bang: :bang: for now, no head on access. Arrrggghhhh :mad: :mad:

[Tor Ekman]

Download Horse Races Now app to your phone or pad. You have to endure the same 10 second Pennsylvania breeders ad before each replay (which gets monotonous), but at least you can fast forward and rewind the race, however it doesn't offer head on replays of the race

[Teacherdan]

If you login to the NYRA site you will see a homepage that has the current day's racecard with all the relevant information and video for that day. If you look at the top of the page you will see the date with a down arrow. If you click on that arrow you will get a drop down menu that will show you all of the past race days for the current meet and all races from last summer's meet.

If you are just trying to go to the NYRA site and aren't signed up I don't think you can watch in HD, see the replays in HD or see prior race days. It doesn't cost anything to just register for the site. Just sign up for a basic account, not NYRA bets.

It shouldn't be this hard to find.

Thanks Teacherdan. I see that for the SPA but I'm looking for Belmont replays as most runners did run at Belmont.

Any advice on finding those?

P.S.

Nevermind. You have to click on the "Saratoga" on the left, then click on Belmont. A new page will open (to the Belmont version of NYRA.com).

Then go to "Racing" and "Race Replays".

Got excited. Then realized they're in 1995 video quality. (And yes....I am a long time NYRA Rewards account holder).

[SaratogaSteve]

Unbelieveable, the worst part of the change, is you have no idea who owns the horse, or what it's pedigree is. You used to be able to click through and get to the equibase site, or use "today's Program" and it would show like an old-fashioned program. NONE of that information is now available. Just terrible.

[AltonKelsey]

Nice to have replays in HD, big difference, but is it really rocket science to have the time scroll bar working? They had months to get this right.

[thespaah]

The new site will not permit pause or replay( rewind for those over the age of 40)....Now can you fast forward to eliminate the load..
The delay of the live broadcast is extensive. Up to 20 seconds behind TVG feed which on satellite is about 5 seconds slow of real time.

[thespaah]

I know that I am stupid but can someone show me, where on NYRA.com you can actually watch replays of old races?

They are there for today's races but where are the old races?
Are you referring to archived races?
Ok I got it.....
On the Saratoga site on the far right click on the arrow in the circle to the right of "watch live"
Then click in the red box "race day live"
You'll see an arrow inside a circle next to today's date.
Click the arrow.
A drop down menu will appear that goes back to July 15th 2012.
Now. If you want to view replays from Aqu or Bel look in the upper left corner where it says "Saratoga" Next to that is a circle with an arrow inside it.
Click that arrow. There you'l see the other two track names appear....Aqu and Bel are under the old site design.

Hey thespaah, thanks pal. I found that but it's too much work and then you get 1995 quality replays when you finally find the "archived" replays. I need HD to truly capture what's going on out there. Head on HD too.

Really? How? I even pulled out my back to the future time machine but not even THAT worked :bang: :D

And who wants to watch a replay without access to pausing, rewinding etc???

[EMD4ME]

Here's something I find peculiar.

Race 1 Sunday. Watched the replay. No gate load, no odds visible, nothing.

Every other race I have "replayed" showed 2 minutes worth of video BEFORE they load.

This was the race where the winner was supposedly 26/1 in the gate load and dropped to 13/1 at the off.

Funny HOW THAT race was missing the annoying gate load (on the replay).

I read it somewhere, not sure if it's 100% true.

I did remember using him as he was plus 20/1 in my pick 5 (of his stressed trip in his last) but can not remember specific odds as I was not focusued on a win bet.

[dnlgfnk]

It's probably been mentioned already but when I couldn't find replays on the new, I simply went to the old site...

https://www.nyra.com/belmont/videos/race-replay/

and switched the replay track to Saratoga.

I did remember using him as he was plus 20/1 in my pick 5 (of his stressed trip in his last) but can not remember specific odds as I was not focusued on a win bet.

He was 25-1 (and co-longest shot in the field) as the first horse entered the gate, by the time they broke he was 13-1 & was 18 points away from being the rank outsider. Looked to be about 5k worth of win bets to move the line that much.

Have to give credit where it's due - they ARE listening, and it is improving. Linking horses to equibase is a BIG restoration of service.

They do deserve credit.


Now, can we improve the following:


Can I skip having to log in to NYRA BETS to get to NYRA Rewards.

Having me waste another minute (especially when I get locked out 160 times a day for no reason) is costing NYRA handle.

I never used NYRA.com to wager and I will never use NYRA Bets to wager. I want my NYRA rewards to wager.

Slowing down one of the fastest wagerers in the game, is annoying and costly to you guys.


P.S. Before anyone suggests to clear the cache, I've done that 160 times a day while I get kicked out 160 times a day.

They fixed the time scroll bar on the replays, but they still haven't enabled it on the ON DEMAND replay shows. If someone wants to skip to race 8 on the Talking Horses replays it would take them an hour.

[jahura2]

I guess I'll be that guy...what is up with the new website?
I want to find the entries for Saturday's card and I cannot find that info.

Is this new look just for the Saratoga meet or will this be permanent?
I used to be able to access the Belmont and Aqueduct section of the website (even during the Sar meet) but cannot find that either.

Good Lord, why? :faint:

Have to say though the combination of Maggie and Gabby sure make the NYRA website more enjoyable. I think by association they make TLG look good!

[PhantomOnTour]

We are well into the meet and the Facts & Figures and Post Position Stats are not available.
It says "Information To Come"....when?

TLG has definitely become more "human"since teaming up with Gabby. :D

[Tom]

The site is just terrible.
The Trakus shot is set so you have to scroll to see it all......PISS poor decision by some idiot. Half the right side of the screen a menu so there is no room for a full chart.

Garbage. :ThmbDown: :ThmbDown: :ThmbDown:

[no breathalyzer]

:ThmbUp: looks like that delay is gone.. site doesn't seem too bad anymore it's growing on me.. it's like any other site after they redesign it. It takes a while to warm up to it.

[jk3521]

Just for the helluvit , I checked for entries for the first day at Belmont on Friday and the site hasn't been updated ,as of yet at least.

No, I mean the site hasn't been updated to the new one used for Saratoga. I did see the entries for Friday.

Just wanted to say major props to NYRA for them full screen Head-on replays.. silly me has been watching them crappy ones... just found out about this now... LOOK OUT NOW GUYS.. this is a major deal!

[Garyinseattle]

Nyra's website is hands down the best racetrack site out there. I don't get the guys complaining about it. The HD video is insane. The access to old shows/info is great. Combine that with the NYRA live show they have on each day, and you actually have a racetrack/association going in the right direction. Now if they could only get Migliore to stop saying every horse on the track looks great all would be perfect.....

It is really good, no doubt. Most of the complaints centered around the switch when Saratoga began that didn't go very well.

I hear ya. That's actually the only time I probably didn't go onto the site , just watched FS2 show.

It kinda amazes me though how NYRA catches so much crap all the time. Not saying only on this site. But if people compared what they are doing to other racetracks and all.... it seems to me that NYRA is so far out of in front of other racetracks. Sure the small fields at times suck, but let's be real, almost every racetrack is going through it. Look at what has happened in So Cal. Racing their has become unbettable.

I love the theories how the Ortiz brothers are rigging races. That's some hilarious stuff. Whoever the hell came up with that should instantly be awarded a time slot on HBO for a comedy hour....preferably 3:00-4:00 a.m. each day.

This thread started on opening day for the Spa meet.
The site was new. And there were plenty of bugs.
NYRA has worked out the kinks and it is now smooth sailing.

Here is my take. Though I am NYRA biased, I will not hesitate to criticize them if I think they aren't doing it right....
Some on here are purely NYRA haters. Of course there will always be those who despise the best in the business. And NYRA is the best in the business....
Perfect? Nope. Show me perfect. I will direct you to Fantasy Land.

First, as was explained this thread started because they put up the new site right before Saratoga, and there were a lot of issues with it at the time. It's great now but when the thread began the complaints were valid.

Second, there are a lot of conspiracy theorists here. If it makes you feel better, I've read conspiracies about how Stephen Curry threw the NBA Finals and Peyton Manning threw all those playoff games he lost. When people are gambling, conspiracies tend to crop up. Put the culprits on "ignore" or you're in for a lot of agita (that's stress and aggravation).

I hear you. I too will call em like I see em. Considering the huge changes in racing over the years (not for the better), they are going in the right direction. Look at other big time tracks like CD, Arlington (yes Arlington IMHO was at one time a big deal) and others that are going south...then look at NYRA......

The fact that some lunatics think that the Ortiz bros are rigging races doesn't bother me, it's kinda hilarious. But yes, the ignore button probably is a good call with some of the wackos out there.

Is anyone else having a problem that when typing www.nyra.com into their browser it's taking them to the Saratoga page instead of the Belmont page? It's been two weeks and it's still happening to me.

I absolutely agree. They are THE BEST in the business, at least to me.

The website has improved dramatically, the shows are entertaining and the talent is there (on air).

I've criticized them before when applicable and applaud them as much as possible for great performance. I don't like people who only find the time to complain. Time for compliments should be made as well and more so.

They do deserve the credit for keeping the top circuit in America going strong.

Question. For years, NYRA used to post the track condition and let you know if any races were OFF the turf at about 7 am or 8 am. This was done without scratches, well before scratch time.

Why don't they do that anymore? Or am I missing it?

[rsetup]

They are THE BEST in the business. It must be you

[EMD4ME]

They are THE BEST in the business. It must be you

Ok, I'm open to that. So, can you kindly tell me where the track condition is posted in the a.m.? (Like they did, after listening to many players about 8 years ago).

For the record, I am not knocking them. I asked so I can find it as I needed it this morning.

[rsetup]

No idea. I've spent the past half hour trying to create an account to watch live video. Thought I finally got there but I can't log in. I suspect NYRA is not exactly encouraging this service.

Can't watch talking horses on the site either. Even though there's a link to watch it live. Well done:lol:

IN "computer" find "cookies".....Then change the setting to 'allow'...
That might clear up the issue

[Harvhorse]

Once you find the entries, if you want to print them there is no print button, when you do print there are eleven to twelve pages.

Seriously, does anyone know the answer to this?

2) These MINIMUM payoffs are getting on my F'N nerves.

Why are we catering to .50 triple players and $1 box players???

For centuries we have had payoffs to the $2 increment. Why change them?

At first, I didn't care but the more I need to multiply by 2 times 14, I am getting annoyed.

At least show the $2 payoffs for everything and then show the stupid minimum.

Now, you're going to have to figure out how to spell the one that starts with an "A"

[SG4]

In this day in age I'm still kind of baffled why all payoffs at every track aren't just universally shown as the payout for $1. When trying to figure out calculations etc wouldn't this just make everyone's life nice & easy?

It very well could be me.......

I clicked on your links and it brings me to the pages that I normally get to without a problem.

Maybe I'm not being clear enough.

I'll try again.

Back in the day, NYRA used to say races 2 and 4 are off the turf but races 8 and 9 are on the turf AT 7 AM. They also would list the track conditions well before scratch time at 7 AM.

That's what I still don't see on their new Website.

Is that what you found?

I appreciate the help Just Ralph

https://www.nyra.com/belmont/racing/scratches-changes

I appreciate the thought but although that looks like it's it, it's not.

"Scratches and changes" are posted late, like 1-2 hours to post.

I'm talking about the same screen that posts the track condition at 7 a.m.

[EMD4ME]

I've found that the best way to do it is to check Grening or Hennig's Twitter.

Thank you for understanding what I'm looking for.

Why can't we bring back what we had for years?

[EMD4ME]

Overnight slight showers in NY till the morning.

Turf races are carded for tomorrow.

This is the EXACT situation that pisses me off with the new Website. Cappers complained for years to get the track condition at 7 am, before it happened (the positive addition of posting track conditions at 7 or 8 am).

Then VIOLA, it's gone. I have no idea if I'm capping for turf, wet turf, or slop as I sit here at 9 pm, 12, 3 am.

At least with the old system, I had 5 hours to adjust. Now I have maybe 90-120 minutes.

Frustrating.

[EMD4ME]

Well, at least NYRA has the finish line cam, which I checked earlier and see a sea of slop.

99% answers we'll be off the turf today.

You spend your life on this site, but aren't on Twitter?

Mark Hennig, Dave Grening, and I posted we were off the turf well over two hours ago. We always post it the second it comes out. Surely you can figure out how to follow us on Twitter...or one of us?

As for off the turf, track condition page....well, it was my idea and was very glad when it worked. I wish it still did too....but, EMD4ME, you have alternatives....and they are VERY easy.

No. I don't have Twitter. Never did and probably never will.

A polite post of we're off the turf would've sufficed (As well as a statement of we don't update the site at 7 am anymore). Don't need your lecture, especially as a client of your association.

For all its failings, not being on twitter is a little like not using Google or still having an AOL account :faint:

I have an account, but I find no compelling reason, or even uncompelling reason to ever bother using it. I apologize to my one follower. :rolleyes:

Twitter is a cesspool. But it's an awesome tool for disseminating info. It's incredibly fast and often first hand. 3 different companies passed on buying it this week. The founders are being sued by shareholders for mismanagement. And the shareholders should win.

I've never seen a tech product so mismanaged.

Give it to me and it would be making money in a month. Not with advertising. There has never been a product more ripe for charging a subscription to use it.

Question:

I've been unable to access race replays since last night on NYRA.com.

They have today's replays, that's no problem. Issue is any old replay can not be accessed.

I have this error message:

Anyone else have that problem or is it something to do with my PC by any chance?

Has it gone the way of the NYRA TV Channel? :(

Replays are back up, for those that cared :ThmbUp:

Maybe it was just an upgrade or something similar.
