About Us
We are America's most trusted independent source for horse racing platform reviews and guidance. Our mission is to help racing enthusiasts find the perfect platform for their needs through honest, comprehensive analysis.
Our Mission
At Hoof And Gallop, our primary mission is to provide completely unbiased, comprehensive reviews of horse racing betting platforms operating in the United States. We believe that every racing enthusiast deserves access to accurate, up-to-date information to make informed decisions about their betting experience.
We are committed to transparency, integrity, and responsible gambling advocacy. Our team works tirelessly to test, analyze, and evaluate every aspect of the platforms we review, from user experience and mobile functionality to bonus offerings and customer support quality.
Our goal is to be the definitive resource that racing fans turn to when choosing their ideal platform, while promoting safe and responsible gambling practices throughout the community.
How We Work
Our editorial process is built on rigorous testing and independent evaluation. Each platform review begins with our team creating real accounts and experiencing the platform exactly as our readers would. We test everything from the registration process to placing bets, withdrawing funds, and contacting customer support.
Our rating system considers multiple factors including platform reliability, user experience, mobile functionality, bonus value, track coverage, payment options, and customer service quality. We spend weeks testing each platform before publishing our findings.
We maintain strict editorial independence and are not owned by any gambling operator. Our reviews are based solely on our testing experience and research findings. We regularly update our reviews to reflect changes in platforms, bonuses, and features to ensure our information remains current and accurate.
All revenue is generated through affiliate partnerships, but these relationships never influence our editorial decisions or ratings. Our readers' trust is our most valuable asset, and we protect it by maintaining complete honesty in all our reviews.

Responsible Gaming Tips
Set a Budget: Always decide how much you can afford to lose before you start betting, and never exceed that amount regardless of wins or losses.
Take Regular Breaks: Set time limits for your betting sessions and stick to them. Taking breaks helps you make clearer decisions and avoid impulsive betting.
Know When to Stop: If betting stops being fun or starts affecting your daily life, relationships, or finances, it's time to seek help and consider self-exclusion options.
