Ladbrokes Coral told to stop streaming ATR races

Ladbrokes and Coral have been told to stop providing online streaming from all 22 tracks covered by At The Races (ATR).

Ladbrokes and Coral have been told to stop providing online streaming from all 22 tracks covered by At The Races (ATR).

In the latest development in the stand-off between some bookmakers and the broadcaster, the Racing Post reports that the two major operators have been warned that they are no longer licensed to provide a bet-to-view service from the 22 ATR venues.

The dispute began at the start of this year when The Racing Partnership (TRP) took over the broadcast of pictures from six Arena Racing Company tracks.

Ladbrokes and Coral have not taken the new service, and TRP has started legal proceedings against them claiming the use of unofficial commentaries and misuse of data.

While William Hill, Paddy Power and a number of independents have taken the service, the Racing Post reported that no British racing was available in Betfred, Coral and Ladbrokes betting shops yesterday (Tuesday).

Ladbrokes have also been ordered to close their betting shops at six TRP courses.

TRP represents the 15 tracks owned by Arc and seven independent racecourses.
