Default Racingdispatch.com Launches

HORSE RACING NEWS PORTAL LAUNCHES
Racingdispatch.com a new site for horse racing fans

Racingdispatch.com, a portal for horse racing news, officially launched this week giving racing enthusiasts another site to visit while surfing the internet.

Created as way to attract new fans, encourage current ones, and entertain the veterans, Racingdispatch.com aims to promote the trade publications that have built such a solid foundation within the sport and to honor the beat reporters, columnists, free-lancers and editors that make racing their living.

“The internet is such a valuable tool for promoting the sport,” said Travis Stone, who founded the site. “The site is currently a labor of love and our motivation stems from our enthusiasm and passion for horse racing.”

Numerous additional areas of the site are currently under construction and slated to launch in the coming months. But for now, Racingdispatch.com is a blend of major racing headlines to off-beat features, commentary and local stories.

“One of our key goals is to showcase the localized coverage of horse racing,” said Stone. “Many racetracks have dedicated reporters that produce entertaining and informative pieces on a daily basis, yet their voice is never heard on a national scale. We hope to eliminate this gap.”

Stone pitched the idea to three of his friends more than a week ago. The site features all the news in an organized and easy-to-find fashion.

“Each of us posts coverage on one specific area of the world and since we all update at different times, the site is never stagnant. We hope this continual freshness helps Racingdispatch.com become a staple for racing fans.”
