NYRA Website
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?

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 
Good Luck POT

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.

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.

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"...

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.

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.

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

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."

''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?

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.

The previous website was one of the best and user friendly that I've seen. This one is terrible.

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

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.

Just looked at it - very poor quality.
Why is TRAKUS listed under Entries?
Too much thin, faint red drowning in white.
