mobile.equineline.com LAUNCHED
WITH FREE 5-CROSS PEDIGREES
Free five-cross Thoroughbred pedigrees from equineline.com, which are downloaded more than 200,000 times each month, are now also available in a customized format for mobile devices following the launch of mobile.equineline.com by The Jockey Club Information Systems (TJCIS).
According to TJCIS Chairman and President Carl Hamilton, the popularity of the five-cross pedigrees made that feature a natural first step in the development of mobile.equineline.com.
“Industry professionals conduct business at any time of day and in any number of locations and having immediate access to a five-cross pedigree will make it even easier to do that,” he said. “The free accessibility of five-cross pedigree information designed for a mobile device also complements The Jockey Club’s Tattoo Identification Services by providing an additional tool to individuals and organizations involved with Thoroughbred retirement and re-training.
“With published reports indicating that mobile phones could surpass PCs as the most common web access device worldwide by 2013, we envision mobile.equineline.com becoming an integral part of how customers access Thoroughbred information in the years ahead.”
To access the free five-cross Thoroughbred pedigrees from a mobile device, simply go to mobile.equineline.com or click on the free five-cross pedigrees link on equineline.com.
