What is there to do when there’s no horse racing on? You don’t even have to leave home

Horse racing is very much an all-year sport according to the horse racing calendar, but regular bettors will know that this is far from the truth. There may be many meets over the course of the year, but some stick to either the jump season or the flat season, and there are the mandated six-day and five-day breaks in November and March, respectively. Furthermore, some meets simply don’t need to be bet on, either due to a lack of prestige or lack of competition in the race itself.

So, what is there to do when there isn’t any horse racing on? Luckily, you don’t even have to leave your home to find similar thrills as online casinos have the most popular gambling games in the world just a few clicks or taps away. When there aren’t any races worth watching or backing, the top UK casinos are ready and waiting to bring you some excitement – there are even some official horse racing games for you to enjoy.

About online casino gaming

In the UK, the best online casinos boast a wide range of games covering everything from classic table games in video and live form to literally thousands of online slot games. Licensed and regulated by the UK Gambling Commission, it’s not only fun to play at the best online casinos, but it’s also safe.

All of the top UK casinos also offer a casino bonus to new players when you sign-up, which often consists of bonus money, free spins on slots, or both. With the bonus money, you can explore the variety of themes and content available on the website, while the free spins often allow you to have some plays on the online casino’s best games.

Being licensed and regulated is a major factor of online casino play in the UK as it means that your money and details are kept safe. There are also many different online payment options available, with the new favourites being eWallets. But if you’d rather use more common online payment options, there will also be credit or debit card methods available.

A huge range of online casino games

Each of the best online casinos in the UK boasts hundreds of games, with some tallying over 1000. This delivers a diverse variety of themes and content within the games libraries, from leprechaun-laden classics to branded games of popular movies, shows, and bands.

Best of all for horse racing fans, there is a fine collection of horse racing slots across top casinos. The most prominent of these games are in the Sporting Legends series by Playtech, which includes the games AP McCoy, Frankie Dettori, and Ascot. There is also the NetEnt-made slot Scudamore’s Super Stakes for more horse racing action.

Never fear if it’s a dull day on the horse racing calendar as there is plenty of fun to be had at the top UK casinos!
