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.

William Hill English
Once you’ve installed the app, you can access William Hill radio by clicking the Radio option in the A-Z Sports menu. By default, this takes you to Horse Racing Radio, and live audio commentary starts playing automatically. A bar at the top of your screen identifies which radio channel you’re on, as well as giving a short summary of what’s currently being aired (for example, identifying the presenters and what they’re discussing).
To change channels, you click the button to the right of the bar. This opens a drop-down menu that lists the three stations. Simply select the channel you want.
Next to the icon for changing channels is a Close button, which you can click to stop the audio from streaming to your device and playing.
Get William Hill radio updates by phone
William Hill offers a telephone service that lets customers place and manage bets. The service also makes it possible to access 24-hour commentary from William Hill radio, using the phone. This means that even if you don’t have internet access, you can listen in on the latest news, predictions and betting tips.
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”.
