Popularity of a sport depends on patronage and support. Cock fighting and bull fighting were very popular in the past but with the passage of time people have lost interest in these sports. Similarly, horse racing is currently practiced on a small scale in some areas, but its popularity has declined worldwide. Especially due to the lack of racers and the decrease in interest of racers, currently horse racing is not held in any international venue if it is held in some remote areas.


I don't know in what region of the world where you currently are, but you're wrong. The global Horse Racing market is actually still growing and expected to almost double in size in the U.S. market by 2030. DYOR, for more information.

The leading countries with growing Horse Racing markets are Japan, the U.S.A., Hong Kong, Australia, and France. I believe in the forum, it's not that popular because no one actually has done the research on strategies and how to actually pick winners. Perhaps we should start?

 Cool
There are really indeed information on this forum which arent really that can be found on which there are indeed markets or places on which a certain thing is popular but not been discussed or been heard off into this place and thats why its not shocking that there arent that much information that we could read up into this forum itself but doesnt mean that it isnt popular.  Speaking about markets then there's really that places which are really that getting involved on such sport. First impression when it comes to horse racing is that this is a sport which are really that for those rich people which i could say that its half truth because
you would be usually be seeing huge bets that getting involved on each race.

On the time that we arent seeing info here on this forum then people arent really just that simply aware about it but if we do tend to go out and made out some
research then we could eventually say that on how vast or known or popular it is. It do really just turns out that this isnt really that
mentioned on this place.

I have been betting on horse racing on the betfair platform for a long time. Very often I have seen the leader fall just before the finish line or slow down unexpectedly, and as a result the victory goes to the participant with very low odds...... It makes you think

The game survival is based on the support from the gamblers,if you are eating the good food from one restaurant one day.So you going to the same restaurant after the year on the same date,but the same restaurant was replaced by the beauty parlour.So the reason behind this was very simple,the lack of the people support to the restaurant to manage their demands using the restaurant.So like this the reason behind the loss of horse racing in your locality and the other counties was due to the emerge of the other online gambling sites.This also caused by the adoption of the gambler to the online betting compared to the horse racing in the community.

Well, I guess it's more of what is popular in your locality and what kind of game interests you that you can make a thread on or positively air your inputs in. Soccer and gained ground in almost all  of the world and it's difficult to see a gambler that hadn't been involved in soccer reduction and gambling so it's easy to see lots of threads regarding it and it kind.

For the horse racing, I haven't thought of it that much but I guess I should give it a try.
Yes,  because going with what is popular in your locality helps you blend with the terms that goes a long with what is happening around you also,  take for instance,  horse racing,  this kind of games is so popular in sub Saharan areas,  since the use the animal a lot there and there is limited forestation so there can host the horse ride tournaments at will and also come up with vast landscape to play the game without any interferences.

Well if yan u can have an online casino that has a horse race,  then you can try it,  but then try also to make use of a few demo games to get used to the game before you start staking your funds on them.

Horse racing is gradually losing it  ground in todays sport expect for countries who are horse lovers country like the Australia, France, Uk, Netherlands etc. There is no central organization to promote horse racing. Every other sport has its central governing organization, charged with promoting the sport and maintaining its popularity. Horse racing does not. Betting on horse races used to be the only legal, readily-accessible form of gambling most people could participate in. That hasn’t been true for many years now.
That's because there aren't a lot of interested spectators in most parts of the world, even if there are organizations and corporations that are specifically created to develop and promote horse racing within certain regions, they won't be able to do anything if people aren't interested to watch the sport or there aren't a lot of players willing to participate because any sport would require one to stay in practice before they can participate in events and races and when players know there aren't much races or events, they stop practising, may even sell their horses.

So, the trend of fading away because of a lack of interest by the audience. We all know that a sport or anything in the world becomes famous or popular only if people that watch that thing like it, and when those who watch it, like it, they will also share it with others to watch but there is nothing like that with horse racing anymore.
Yel horse race just like cockfighting is becoming an outdated old-fashioned thing and this game requires a lot of arrangement their consume money and manpower to organise them but then also we still have a few places and tournaments that include this game up until now but those games are not all that popular in online casinos.

But in a few physical games reserves, you may still have a real horse to ride and compete against other horse riders in races and win a price that is already settled on by the resort,  I have one like that in my city and once in a while the organise a race competition between players.
I agree that horse competitions are held in relatively small numbers and only in selected countries when compared to competitions in other sports. 
But in some countries, these competitions are an integral element of the traditions of these countries, which go back many centuries. 
Or, for example, camel racing in a number of Arab countries.  These are definitely very strong traditions.  And I don’t think that during the lifetime of several generations of people in the future, for example, even in 150-200 years, such competitions will no longer be held.  Still, I think such competitions will definitely continue. 
And we shouldn t forget about people who love animals very much, in particular such a smart animal as a horse.  There are many such people and, accordingly, competitions involving horses are a real holiday for them. 
And to deprive them of such a holiday, I believe, is wrong.

Horse racing is a lovely game that we'll love to watch but sometimes the accident that do happens sometimes when the horses crash to the ground causing some of them to love their lives is what piss me up a lot. Horse racing is a good game but I don't like seeing accidents because I feel like it is not meant to be. I do gamble on horse racing but it is mostly virtual game since I find it difficult to bet on live game. I would love to bet on live games but the casinos I make use do not have an option for live horse racing which is one of the reason why I do switch to Virtual betting.
 There’s is no sports where accidents does not occur, even in the football that we most enjoy accident do occur they are cases where a player has died in the field, even some of the injuries they sustained are very scary scene to witness, so to my best knowledge no sport is safe because accidents can happen in any where and in anymore for. This players also undergo some risk too to an extent forget about their weekly income and how much bonuses they get, they are open to accidents both in and off the pitch. That is why they made it compulsory to stop the game when a player is injured in the head. Not only in football though, every other sport too, sports generally is dangerous to play you can’t be too careful performing. Horse racing being a fast sport is dangerous too when horses clashes there’s  prune to be a gruesome sight.

Leo is resting.
Actually I can say with confidence that my parents loves to watch horse racing but they never had to chance to bet and I'm actually glad for this because horse racing is an elegant race that takes a lot from both the horse but also the rider.  ( worth to mention that my parents are almost 60 which means previous generation was way more attractive towards horse racing than the current generation ). Meanwhile , I don't like to watch any type of animal racing , not horses , not dogs , nothing because I do feel this races are most of the times rigged and I cannot trust them.  Grin Grin

There is also the fact that a lot of countries are considering animal races are illegal and some of them are fair to banned them.

But here it seems like there is little interest in this, is that because horse racing is just unpopular or is it because, well,.... the casinos that sponsor most signatures here are not promoting it?

I come from a country, where horse racing isn't popular at all. I mean literally nobody gives a sh*t about horse racing where I live. Sad
AFAIK, horse racing in popular in the anglo-saxon countries like the UK and USA. I don't know why. I don't mind betting on horse racing, but I just don't find it interesting. I can't predict which horse is better than the other horses and can't analyze the performance of the horses and their riders. I don't think that crypto casinos actively promoting horse race betting around the forum would change anything. This sport simply isn't popular in certain parts of the world.

There are countries where horse racing is popular but there are many countries where horse racing is not popular and here in my country I belong to unpopular in actual game which means  that, casino and gambling site here in my country don't have that game. anyways some of my fellow countrymen invented a game which known as Karera and when you bet 1 bucks then you have a chance to win 100x or more when you win but sad to say it's hard to win that game.

        -  Here in our country, it seems like it's illegal now, but two decades ago, he was still operating legally, as far as I know. So now, I don't seem to hear any news about this kind of gambling in my country.

But there are a lot of people who are crazy about horse racing because the bet is big there, even though they have other horse racing games like Jai alai, which is also considered illegal gambling. But now that's not there, maybe someone else is operating somewhere else; that's why it's secret, of course. Then I also noticed that I don't see horse racing in online casinos like we do today in the crypto space as well.

- Is anyone here actually gambling on horse racing?


I don't actually gamble on horse racing but I've considered it a noble sports just as I consider golf. People make loads of money from this sports and if this could go mainstream, it will be an envy of games, consider it one of the games in the olympics and see how fast it spreads.
Because horses have been used in the medieval ages, people consider it an old game and want to be involved in sports that are more digitized. I guess its only popularity exists within the rurals where horses are commonly used.

But I think that is worth it cause we all know there are many gamblers want to see that kind of games.
It isn't worth it, that's the biggest problem. There aren't a lot of people who are interested in the game these days since the game is only famous in specific regions and even in those regions, you will barely see people heading to race courses to see horse races because it's an old and outdated game now, people are interested in modern sports and that is the reason why organizations don't want to waste any money on it if they know they can't get any profit in return and rather lose all the money.

And in additional for the owner of the horse they need to feed thier horses give some exercise everyday and vitamins so it's too expensive when you want to play in horse racing.
It's not about the expenses, but it's all about the continuity of the game. The players who participate in the races would make themselves and their horses ready only if they know that there are races that they need to participate in, but since the sport is slowly fading away, players would obviously not do all that.

I see horse racing as a kind of expensive game which a lot of things that need to be put in proper consideration to have a horse racing track. I prefer to play online horse racing game just like playing bet on virtual games Which is more easier and convinient than looking for live horse racing tournaments to bet on. Everything is becoming digital now and very soon most games we will be betting on will be virtual rather than live games. Horse racing might not be so popular but it is a good game that can be interesting depending on the type and momentum.

Agree with this mate one thing for sure when a facilitator want to have a contest or a horse racing then it will consume more time and money as we all know that that they need to prepare the race tracks and money to organize everything they need. But I think that is worth it cause we all know there are many gamblers want to see that kind of games. And in additional for the owner of the horse they need to feed thier horses give some exercise everyday and vitamins so it's too expensive when you want to play in horse racing.

All of that can be handled by the owner since horse racing is their passion so for sure they just ignore those expenses but rather think about on how they can make their horses better and race ready. Horse racing is really a expensive sports that's why maybe some group of people cannot relate to this kind of sports since they can't afford to have those animals or even to pay some tickets on the race which cost provably a lot. Unlike those popular balling sports where its easy for them to market this since anyone is been hook since they can play it anywhere they want. But maybe if there's businessman that can able to handle this sports and find ways to have tv coverage on their build horse racing sport maybe we can see some changes and people might like to watch them.

As far as I know, Horse racing isn't that much a popular game after all, though here in my country, some local casinos used to make the game available to bettors, but right now, it's hard to find a casino to bet on horse racing, this simply means that the game is probably dying off little by little.

And what i do think is that, when horses were a pretty much always available commodity, the game of horse racing was pretty popular and one that was enjoyed by very many people all over the world, but today, horses have become very scarce, and pretty expensive for those who still have it, so instead of spending so much money to host horse racing games, people now refer to spend less to host even games that are more interesting than horse race, as we have a lot of options today when it comes to sports.

In theory it is about knowing the game and the horses, but for real is a super-difficult game to make profit from. It is difficult to get enough good results in a systematic manner not to mention to have any advantage over the punters that are really well into the business. Anyway, I think is more popular with old people, that can spend a whole evening drinking and watching it.
Well, horse racing, unlike football and other forms of sports that involves humans, is one of the unpredictable games in the days of its rein.
Like today, football matches, and other forms of sports that invoiced human participation can be predicted easily depending on how well and time the gambler have spent in studying the players and teams in general, so outcome of such games can be easily predicted.

But for horse racing, and other animal games, this is difficult because animals don't have a long lifespan like we humans, so for the years such animal in involved in the sporting event, its not long enough for gamblers to build a clear statistics and performance ratio on them, which is what will aid gamblers in deciding which animal to bet on each time there is a game.
Im not really seeing the relevance about being a human or involving some animals which would really be indicating about its popularity.It is really just that purely just basing on the demand
and also you could really be able to see those animal cruelty kind of argument on some people on which they dont really like for it to see and i dont know about its relevance but i dont know
if it is really the reason.  So far we cant really be able to see discussions about this sport and its true that this is something a rich man kind of sport.
Well, lets just move on on what are the rankings,stick up into your preference because each does have that different market.
