Interactive wagering systems and methods for recording wagering events
An interactive wagering application is provided that automatically prompts a user to record wagering events based on entered wagers. The recorded wagering events may be stored in a personal archive. The races stored in the personal archive may be listed according to information associated with the stored race, such as the track, race number, and date of the races. The interactive wagering application may also have access to a racing video archive and allow a user to search that archive for videos of prior races based on information associated with those races. The user may view the races from the search results or save the races in the user's personal archive. The wagering application may be implemented using platforms based on set-top boxes, personal computers, handheld computing devices, cellular telephones, or other suitable devices.
