ICON BASED HANDICAPPING TOOL FRESH CHANGE FOR HORSE RACING

Arapahoe Park opens to live horse racing on Saturday May 23rd, and will feature Pace Pals for a second season.

Pace Pals, is the industry’s only icon based handicapping tool specifically designed to make horse racing more accessible to fans new to the sport. InCompass Solutions Inc., the premier provider of software solutions to racetracks throughout North America, has written software specifically designed to make Pace Pals available to every track in the country.

Pace Pals is a quick and easy to use PDF format for print and web downloads. It has been available for four years at Hollywood Park in Inglewood CA. The regulars at Hollywood Park have taken to Pace Pals in a big way where it has shown to increase handle (wagering) and bring newcomers out to the track.

“Every week when I'm out at the track selling my tip sheets. I usually have about a dozen fans ask if we have Pace Pals, because they have been using them out at Hollywood Park and they really like them.” said Bob Hyder Santa Anita tip sheet salesman with over 30 years in the business.

“I made it out to the track with some of my buddies. They used the Pace Pals and made some money. But greater than that they had FUN playing the horses and want to come back to the track.” said Anthony Ware Hollywood Park regular and USC Student.

In 2008 Pace Pals was available at four tracks including Arapahoe Park and through online sales at Todays Racing Digest. The Digest is working on expanding Pace Pals service to all North American tracks in the near future. http://www.todaysracingdigest.com. “We are very excited about these new partnerships with InCompass and Todays Racing Digest and look forward to continue to grow our audience across the country and help more people have more fun at the races.” said Craig Peterson, President and creator of Pace Pals.
