Horse Racing Radio
William Hill’s Horse Racing Radio is the longest-running and most popular of the bookmaker’s two channels. For more than ten years, it has been providing daily racing podcasts, news, previews (including regular Friday previews of the weekend races), interviews with racing experts and celebrities, entertaining banter and naps from respected tipsters.
As well as providing real-time commentary on all races in the UK and selected races in Ireland, Horse Racing Radio covers a number of significant races elsewhere – such as the Arc de Triomphe in France.
William Hill Horse Racing Radio is live 15 minutes before the first UK horse race and up until the last is weighed in.
You can also access Horse Racing Radio via the William Hill site.
Greyhound Radio
As a second option, William Hill’s Greyhound Racing Radio offers live coverage of greyhound races run in the UK. Listen to live greyhound racing commentaries daily from 11 AM Sunday to Thursday and 10:30 AM Friday to Saturday.

William Hill radio weekly naps table
William Hill radio publishes a daily naps table, which lists 20 bets selected by various tipsters as the best propositions for the day. Of course tipsters don’t always get it right – but it’s probably worth keeping an eye on what the top ones predict (especially when doing this doesn’t cost you anything!). This should form just part of the information you use when deciding what bets to place.
The table is updated daily at 11 a.m. For each bet, it lists the name of the tipster (or “napster”), the recommended selection with month and season form statistics, when and where the relevant event will be held and a Bet Now option. Once an event has been completed, the time and place details are replaced by the event results – for example, “Unplaced” or “Won @ 8/11”.
