11 January 2010 Viewpoint - a must have for the Pointing enthusiast
by Weatherbys Chase Staff
Point-to-Point racing's National website run by Weatherbys Chase, pointtopoint.co.uk, continues to grow in both quality of content and ground-breaking innovation, with the launch in 2009 of Great Britain's first ever Point-to-Point Video Channel, Viewpoint.
The subscription fee is just £75.00 for twelve months (known as the Chase Plus package) and includes the full benefits of pointtopoint.co.uk (for complete details of these benefits click here).
What's the story?
Viewpoint is a joint venture between the Official website of Point-to-Point horseracing, pointtopoint.co.uk and the leading British Point-to-Point video producers. With Viewpoint, subscribers can gain unprecedented access to Point-to-Point video on-line and catch up with all of the action the week after each meeting (supply permitting).
New videos should start becoming available from Thursday evening each week following the weekend's action. Where videos require heavy editing (i.e. more than one camera has been used at the meeting) these may take a little longer to get on-line, as will those meetings held at peak times (e.g. Easter/Bank Holidays).
To give you a taste of what to expect from Viewpoint we have provided some video content that is free-to-view. However, the majority of the videos on Viewpoint are viewable by subscribers only.
Each video shows a minimum of 90-120 seconds of each race as standard (which equates to the last 4 or 5 fences, depending on the course), but if you would like the complete video of the race you can purchase it from the relevant video producer by clicking the BUY VIDEO icon (which displays in the top right hand corner of the screen when you are watching a race).
Full details on how to subscribe to Viewpoint can be found here.
Where do we film?
Currently, the Viewpoint footage is supplied by two of Britain's leading Point-to-Point video suppliers - Westcountry Videos and David Jones Media. Together, these two suppliers provide us with approximately 40% of coverage nationwide, but we are hoping to expand the coverage as the success of the site continues to grow.
