Not a great start Paddy, all this hype about your new Horse racing pages and it does not work? All links working to commentary, tv, post predicter but race cards not loading so how do you get a bet on??? Neither of us will get rich aty this rate.
the links dont work , and the race cards dont appear , so How are you suppose to place a bet ? it was better before
Fantastic, NOT. 24 hours later and still the same, race cards not loading, come on paddy get your finger out.
Hi Andy,
I have been advised there was a slight update to the release this morning to iron out some bugs. If you hard refresh it should resolve any issues you are having.
Cheers,
Chris
And what is “hard refresh” when it’s at home? Why can’t computer people speak in a language that other people can understand?
Hi David,
A hard refresh is Ctrl + F5 when it’s at home. It clears a previous stored version of the page on your machine.
Thanks,
Chris
Thanks very much. Unfortunately it doesn’t seem to have any effect on my iMac and I am still left without racing pages that can be used, no e/w button and unable to alter my personal details as the “save” button seems inactive too. A bit of a shame from a site that I have had no problems with for the last three years on a variety of platforms.
And………………………. Still nothing.
The new racing post information is welcome, however its not easy on the eye as the form figures are too small and should be more prominent and the white coloured prices on a green background doesn’t work as its not easy to glance at.
Hi, i agree the form figures are the smallest print on this new page, WHY only paddy nows,,,, if punters wanted racingpost we would click on, http://www.racingpost.com
Looks great, but what has happened to the daily money back specials on racing?
not very good, the old page was a lot better, mite have to go elsewhere,, already have acces to racingpost site
have refreshed racecards still not opening as paddy himself would surely say fek fek fek!
as paddy himself would surely say fek fek fek! cant get my bets on
Hi bethsdad,
A Hard refresh with Ctrl + F5 should resolve any issues you may currently be experiencing. Let us know how you get on.
Thanks,
Chris
I cannot open racecards to put a bet on??????????????????????????? Have tried refresh but have had to look at other company racing cards which seems to defeat the object?
Only partially works on my usual browser, Camino. The horses and prices don’t appear. Have found that it works, but somewhat iffy, maybe 90%, with Safari. It seems as if some more work needs to be done by your boffins. Best of luck.
I cant see the names of the horses or put a bet on! I will either be saving a lot of money or moving to a new betting site – please get this sorted Paddy Power. Jean
card opens when click tote but not quik or advanced plus i just want to see whole card at the same time not have to click each race guess its bookies for me today
Awful changes! impossible to find simple information, I’ll sign on with some other betting company until you sort it out or put it back the way it was. Send me an email when you’ve done that.
can`t get me bet on as easily as I did on the old site took me twice as long to suss it out……………not good Paddy
new horse racing page is class. far more information on the horses in each race. wel done!!
im with andy on this one ye cant get into the race cards. i think the old page was not bad at all there was no need to change it at all
Disaster. !!!
Why change it before Chelteham.?
I can’t see the jockeys details unless I go onto ‘advanced view’ – this is a right pain as this can be useful info when betting. If you do go onto advanced’, the info displayed means other rival horses info disappears of the page and you have to scroll down to cpature it – so it’s not as easy to use – which was a major plus point before.
Hi Dave,
If you click the little green arrow beside the horse’s name in the quick view mode, circled below:
it will expand to display the basic jockey and trainer info for all horses.
Hopefully this is what you’re after.
Cheers
Rob
Rob – top stuff, that’s exactly what I wanted – thanks.
Although PP Live Help said there was no way other than clicking ‘advanced’ , so it’s 1 up to you!
Thanks again.
I think the new layout is superb and so handy to have. It saves having two tabs open, one for racing post and the other your website but now its all there at your fingertips. Superb!
i personally think that the new pages and the update is such a great improvement and others that are complaining need to embrace the change. well done paddy. good move!
i think this is great it is 10 times better than the other one well done paddy power
no likey the new set up especially before cheltenham,miss my a-z search which has changed ,also preferred the old racecards
This is frustrating. Cannot get odds displayed or place a bet. Why try to fix something that isn’t broken.
I will have to use another bookie today.
does it work with chrome?
cant get the racecards to load using it
after a few mins i still see Loading…..
the old way was streets ahead of any other bookmaker
cant see how anyone would have thought otherwise and ive
used every bookie out there
im heading back to boyles if things dont improve
i only use chrome and that wont be changing anytime soon
cant get racecards to load using chrome
what a disaster
there was no need to change
it was perfect.
Can’t find the race cards!! Can’t bet!!
an agent has told me theres a compatibility issue using chrome
it surely wasnt there before
my card for wolves has been loading for over 15 mins
too much hassle
i realise now how much i loved the old racecards
I’m not a techie expert but there appears to be a bug causing the loading issue for some users of Chrome. Our team of Star Trek fans are releasing a fix for it very shortly. Within the next half hour or so I’ve been told. This only seems to be effecting a small minority of customers, that’s not to say it’s any less annoying for those of you it is effecting, but if you can bear with us, people who know far more about this kind of thing than I do should have it all sorted very soon. I’ll let you all know when the fix goes in so you can make sure it’ working okay for you. Please continue to let us know what you think or if you are having any issues.
Terrible. Racing pages will not load; adverts obliterate prices. E/w button inactive.
What a shambles! I am on aol and although I can access the site, I cannot load the racecards or have a bet. Don’t you people test these things before you put them on? Cannot bet here so will spend the afternoon looking at other bookmakers’ site when 24 hours ago I had absolutely no problems with Paddy Power. A great way to drive customers elsewhere!
Your NEW racing website stuff is horrendous. Some parts don’t work, I can’t see the horses and how to bet on them etc. I’ve spent literally thousands of pounds on your site, but after this I am now going to be betting at other websites who actually look after there customers and value them and don’t over complicate things as you did with your poker site and that’s also why I never play poker on paddypower anymore.
Cannot see horses and buttons not responding. Probably need to adjust my settings somewhere but this shouldn’t happen. Cannot get a bet on so off to BET365.

This is my site— No Racecard at all Great Site Off elsewhere
I had a shock when going to place my bets this morning and at first I wasn’t sure I liked what I found, but WOW now I do. I haven’t had any trouble accessing anything or placing my bets and the integration of the Racing Post info, racing predictor etc are brilliant – saves me switching back and forth between PP and RP websites.
A big thumbs up, I say!!!
Doesn’t work using Chrome………..
Very good, looks well, only problem i have is its very annoying the way the Fallers insurance markets are up 1st, and u have to click the arrow to just see the odds (and previous odds etc)
This should be the other way round!!!!
Hi Jay. click on “My Account” in the top left of the screen, then “Website Preferences”. At the bottom of this page click “Racecard only” in the “Set Races to Display” section and Save. You will then see all the info you are looking for by default, and can still see the other markets if you wish by expanding the market selection.
given up! original site perfect,i will give a week to see if it gets less confusing before finding another source.
Overall its good, but I think the form is lost in there, I used to scan it instantly now I have to go searching for it.
Why can the form figures be the link instead of the big green word Form, and surely you can come up with something better than having “RP Spotlight” written on every line, looks clunky – can i suggest an icon ?
Now please sort out the really irritating bug where I can’t see double digit odds on my safari betslip.
Oh and while I’m at it, please please sort out how results display on the iphone app, its a nightmare.
Thanks
If it ain’t broke etc., I’m off to another site. I’ll try you’re site occasionally to see if it works
Cant get even 1 race open to see horses or odds ? , let alone get a bet on ? , so i want be losing today , why play around with a site which was working perfectly well ? if this is’nt sorted Paddy, i will have to leave the best bookmakers and go elsewhere to bet, as i bet everyday
It’s an absolute nightmare!!
Really liked the first impressions (hot jockeys/trainers etc) but that’s no good if I can’t access the racecards or have a bet….. Need to get this sorted asap before you end up losing more custom…..
Awful – go back to the way it was. “Custom Racecard” doesn’t work. Even the old custom racecards limitation of 5 races was/is way behind the Ladbrokes site where there is no limit on the number of races that you can put in the racecard.
Would be good if I could get a race card up so I can have a bet after all that is why I joined your site
Bring back the old site at least it took my money
Ian
Waste of time can’t get a racecard up, back to william hill for me ,was’nt anything wrong with
the old system
Where did the Steamers go?? Isn’t Listing jockeys or trainers is pretty basic on a form card? Thanks.
Hi Briantheref, you will find Steamers under the “Tips” tab along with the Racing Post signposts such as Selection Box, Hot & Cold Jockeys, etc.
If you click the green button with the arrow beside the horses name, you’ll see jockey, trainer, weight, Racing Post Rating, weight, age & Previous odds. You can make this your default view if you like – click on “My Account” in the top left of the screen, then “Website Preferences”. At the bottom of this page click “Racecard only” in the “Set Races to Display” section and Save. You will then see all the info you are looking for by default, and can still see the other markets if you wish by expanding the market selection.
I moved over from betfred because his site was so slow, but it worked, this new “custom racecard” has ruined your racing page.
Had no problems with the old system, find this one a disaster, unable to access prices or place the bets I want. May have to give up and go elsewhere, sorry!
very hard to use , and not user friendly , I am not pc novice or internet novice ,this is incredibly difficult to navigate, I “play’ on this website when on a break, no fun anymore, I used to back jockeys not horses and with shifting odds, odds will only show shifting featur when you refresh page consistently, I have struggled with it most of the day and have now offically given up ! Funds will be withdrawn and will play elsewhere
What a eap of crap. How is one meant to view the runners, nothing but a blank page comes up. Get back to the old way ASAP
I use AOL and site a disaster,only good thing others struggling as well,thought it was myself could not fathom it out. Works better on Internet Explorer but do not want the hassle. If no improvement will go elsewhere. Site was great before,and I could go to Racing Post website if needed. Paddy,you have shot yourself in the foot. hope you will compensate your customers in some way….
terrible ! , please bring back the old layout , or at least allow us to change back to the old view , racecards are appalling
Don’t like new look. Too much information…
I just want to place the bet thanks.
I do all my research elsewhere, and choices before I bet.
I want to be in and out. I don’t want to stay on your site.
Totaly agree.
The new website will take some getting used to as I loved the old one. However I am disappointed that past form figures are no longer shown as this was the deciding factor on my selections, Regards, Jill
Hi Jill,
If you click on the word ‘form’ directly below the horse’s name you’ll get the details of last three races it ran and if you click on the horse’s name you’ll launch a pop-up which detail the horse’s complete form, courtesy of the Racing Post.
Hopefully this is what you’re after but if not,
then let me know.
Cheers
Rob
Wont load racecards with google chrome….very bad and already cost me and probably paddy money, free bets should be awarded to all those inconvenienced by this complete cock up, if it aint broke why fix it?
Didnt work for me until I used the ctrl+f5 refresh…works a treat now,Im using chrome.
Fantastic update to the site Paddy!
As for Nathan Astbury’s “if it ain’t broke, why fix it?” approach; clearly his business acumen needs some fixing.
i prefer to do my research and then go gambling
loved the old layout however
the new layout won’t wont with chrome so i
guess it is broke now and it does need fixing
Difficult to see how prices are changing now, was nice and easy before!
Hi Diane,
As with the form guide, if you click the little green button beside the horse’s name, the Insurance Markets will disappeara and you’ll be able to see the previous odds.
Hope this helps.
Rob
I wish web-site operators would realise that some of us lesser mortals use wireless and the new pages take forever to load….
sorry but have to say two thumbs down, not liking it what so ever, have you heard the phrase “if its not broken dont fix it”, that should have applied ehre, the outlay is nice and pro which is fair enough its very easy on the eye but i have had so much difficulty looking for Jockeys, betting history, sorry but i cant see myself staying here for much longer….
The way oyu had it was fine, you should have left it alone, what about the cuastomers who were happy with the way it was, is it just a matter of tough luck, majority rule???
It will be Great when it’s finished ! Some very helpful additions ! But, where are the Racing Post animated horseeZzz – predicting the races for us so we don’t have to check out the form LOL
it worked yesterday afternoon but tuesday morning now its not working again no cards appearing i put my bets on usually 8 am before i go to work if there is no cards i will have to change bookies cmon this is just bobbins who exactly asked for these donk changes
i think paddy power could be in the midst of a GERALD RATNER moment, cards are not opening again so on workdays my bets would have failed as usually put em on at 8am
Well done,think that the new racing pages are a terrific improvement.Much appreciate the predictor and other information from the racing post. surprised to see negative comments as I have had no problems whatsoever all we need now are a few more winners !!
Still cant have a bet on this **** site when are you goping to LISTEN to your customers or are you going to wait till you realy notice how much money you are losing
Ian
This is a wojice change, whats separates paddy from the rest was the simplicity of the site. Being able to log in quickly and wap a bet on sharpish. Also ill bet (excuse pun) that you will notice a downturn in bets from people who back jockeys blind seeing as how you have removed the jockey names from the main racecard. If you click into a racecard a minute before the off and see walsh mccoy etc at the head of the market you are more willing to rush in and bet. Layout = poor. Complication = poor and as you must know paddy us punters are for the most part unresponsive to change. change it back and we wont have any issues
Yesterday I would have agreed with the comments about the new look website. I couldn’t get the race cards to appear and couldn’t put a bet on. I have now got it to work and like the new features – I would like to see the form more clearly, it is buried in text but apart from that it works well. Once you have rebooted the site, lost all your passwords and logged on again! I think by the end of the week it will feel ok and I really like the link to the racing post predictor and the ease of getting video and radio coverage. Jean
All the bugs seem to be sorted. Today was far better. Good that reference can be made to racing post. Would be better if live comments were also included. You are forgiven.
for all google chrome users like myself….here is your fix
go to options…under the hood…clear browsing data, at that bottom of the clear browsing data
go to adobe flash player settings then on the new webpage in the storage website setting panel
scroll down to paddy power and delete website
paddy wasnt in mine so i deleted all sites and now the racecards at least load
still dont like it though but its here to stay i was just told
hope this helps someone
Hate the new layout,nothing wrong with old one.
Does not work on Google Chrome,the fastest browser & most popular,please note this!
Old website was still better than other bookmakers.
Please listen to your punters Paddy,or they will leave you.
I have a new macbook and I cant to listen to the commentary just wont play on it it worked on my old Toshiba – any suggestions
STILL A CROCK, SOME DAYS PAGE LOADS AND OTHERS CANNOT SEE TIPS DOES NOT LOAD, SPEND LOADS MOST DAYS BUT MIGHT JUST GO ELSEWHERE AS THESE PROBLEMS STILL EXIST. YOU NEED TO SACK YOUR IDIOT I.T STAFF.
