Are you guys happy now...Twinspires Classic is back!!!

Twinspires brought back Classic......

I don't know when but I recently found it.....

A simple interface that works perfectly

I'm surprised that SpiceMaster hasn't brought this up

So after months of complaints and rude responses , they decided that we

were right.....

The only thing I see is the site is even worse than ever.
I selecyed Basic and still can only see a coupe of lines at a time.
TS is WORTHLESS.

It never went away for me, always showed up in my drop down menu.
My big complaint is Twinspires removed the ability to upload wagers.
Most all other platforms have implemented wagering tools while Twinspires removes wagering tools, go figure

Twinspires SUCKS!

The only thing that I use TS for is ProfitLine and some of their stats no betting (US residents)

When you click on the stats for the horse the positive/negative trends are there right from the Brisnet pps and also for the Jockey,Trainer and Sire you can find great stats too!

So don't hate on Twinspires just yet

If you do that and choose "express" you get the original U-Bet interface!

It took them 3 years to get back to where they were 10 years ago.

Yes, I get it now.
Silly me, I was clicking on the "other" Classic, apparently.

A few years ago I visited a friend of mine down in Alabama for the Breeder's Cup. This was in a window where some of us "complainers" still had access to the Classic (Winticket) menu, like me. My buddy was an intermittent "Big Day" player, logging in a half dozen times per year. He logged into TS, and no classic menu to be found. I looked 'cause I thought he was joking - but it just wasn't on his menu for his account.

He called support, and they told him it was no longer available. When he told support his friend still had access to the Classic interface, they responded with "some special account holders still get it..."

Funny, during the whole debacle of the conversion to the new and not-so-improved interface, I never felt special.

I quit using Twinspires except for PPs and a minimum bet. I thought somewhere along the line the Classic/Winticket interface was completely gone, but about month or so ago I noticed it was available. It's a little buggy with a couple of things (sometimes loses the tracks selected), but it's much better than the new interface.

Still just using WS for PPs and minimum bets.

It still doesn't have conditional betting like the old classic interface once had.

As (currently) an Illinois resident, I feel your pain. Our options are limited.

I've found NYRAbets to be good, reliable and pretty easy to use. When I first switched to it after Xpressbet requested a zip code from an address I lived over twenty years previously as a security question (4 years ago), I was surprised at how much better quality the video feed from NYRAbets was than TS. Their customer service seems pretty good, and my only complaint is that I can't bet racing from France - which TVG allowed.

As far as buggy goes, I've had intermittent issues with the video feed as well, the track listing getting reset to nothing when using other TS menus (I still use and like their free BRIS Ultimate PPs), and I've had a couple of bets just get flushed without getting into the system. It's readily apparent that it failed, and I think the couple of times it happened, a second attempt worked.

However, I haven't used the Classic menu that much since it magically reappeared, so if I tried using it as my primary account, I might have a different attitude. I plan to move soon, and while in the past I would have been excited over the chance to improve my ADW choice, I've cut back so much on betting now I'd almost put up with Xpressbet. Almost.
