Equibase Past Performance App Introduced for iPad

Equibase Company LLC today unveiled the Equibase iPPs™ Past Performance app for the iPad, the company’s first product specifically customized for Apple’s popular tablet.

The Equibase iPPs app, which can be downloaded free from the App Store on an iPad, enables customers to download past performances to their iPad and then “mark-up” the program as if handicapping with a traditional pen and paper.

“The Equibase iPPs app displays past performance information in a format that can be easily personalized simply by touching the iPad screen,” said Hank Zeitlin, president and COO of Equibase. “Whatever marks you make while handicapping using a traditional print program or Daily Racing Form – whether it’s circling, highlighting or making specific notes – you can now make and save right on your iPad.”

Users can select from a variety of past performance program formats for every North American racetrack for as little as $2. In addition to Thoroughbred and Quarter Horse programs, Harness past performances are also available for download to the app.

Equibase Company is a partnership between subsidiaries of The Jockey Club and the Thoroughbred Racing Associations of North America and serves as the Thoroughbred industry’s official database. Through its website, mobile platform and mobile applications, Equibase offers a comprehensive menu of wagering products, statistical information and video race replays in support of the North American Thoroughbred racing industry. Additional information is available at equibase.com.
