HBA Media Partners with Genius Sports
HBA Media announced a new partnership with Genius Sports to launch “Crown Jewels Racing Fantasy” (CJRFantasy) – the first international horse racing fantasy game.
As the established leader in the international distribution of horse racing media rights, HBA Media works with broadcasters worldwide representing renowned races including Royal Ascot, the Saudi Cup, the Breeders’ Cup, Hong Kong Jockey Club, as well as premium UK horse racing through HBA’s partnership with Racecourse Media Group.
CJRFantasy has been launched to help unify the global horse racing calendar, providing broadcasters and their fans around the world with a new platform to enhance their knowledge, compete with family and friends, and engage with the world’s most prestigious races.
For each race, players must select three horses, designating who will finish first, second and third. Double points will be assigned to one horse chosen as captain, while players must also answer a tie-breaker question on the winning distances. Each horse is assigned an XP where the lower their score, the more likely the horse is to win the upcoming race. Horses with higher XP who win will deliver more points, encouraging players to select from the full field.
HBA Media will promote the new CJRFantasy game through the international broadcast feed across the calendar year, connecting their gamification strategy with millions of horse racing fans worldwide. On-air graphics will encourage and engage viewers in the joys of the CJRFantasy game, which offers unique raceday experiences and VIP merchandise as prizes. In addition, on-screen talent and ambassadors that include horse racing’s finest Nick Luck, Michelle Yu, Tom Stanley and Frankie Foster will also host their own competitive leagues, enabling viewers to take on the professionals.
CJRFantasy is powered by Genius Sports – a global leader in building highly interactive and engaging fantasy, trivia and predictor tools for the NFL, FIFA, World Rugby, European Tour and MLB.
Frank Sale, Managing Director for HBA Media, said: “We are continually looking for innovative and exciting ways to promote, engage and connect with new and existing audiences. Working in partnership with Genius Sports has enabled us to provide our clients (racecourses, federations and broadcasters) with a powerful and entertaining interactive tool. We are delighted to be able to launch CJRFantasy for the prestigious Dubai World Cup this Saturday.”
Judd Goldstein, Global Commercial Lead, Fan Engagement at Genius Sports, said: “HBA Media plays a central role at the heart of the global horse racing ecosystem, and we’re thrilled to be helping them directly connect with fans around the world. CJRFantasy will bring the world’s showcase horse races into one connected free-to-play gaming destination, allowing horse racing fans to engage with the sport like never before.”

Games Global and Slingshot Studios expand Cashingo™ series with Eruption Blaze Cashingo™
Title pairs advanced Cashingo
experience with ULTRA Link&Win
enhancements
Games Global, together with its exclusive studio partner, Slingshot Studios, has released Eruption Blaze Cashingo
, bolstering the popular series with a feature-rich release, where jackpots up to 5,000x chart a path to 13,283x win potential.
Set against the backdrop of a lava-spewing volcano, every cash and jackpot coin that lands is added to the mirrored Cashingo
grid, with the value of all prizes paid out when a horizontal, vertical or diagonal row is completed.
Adding further variety to the action is the integrated ULTRA Link&Win
feature, which can be activated by landing six or more coins. The feature begins with three respins on a 5×5 reel set, with three extra rows initially locked. Keys can unlock additional rows, expanding the reels and increasing win potential.
Special Boosters can appear during the round, including Doublers that increase the value of up to four cash prize coins and Collectors that gather all visible cash coin values at once. Persistent versions of these boosters remain active, while Extra Life coins award an extra spin once the initial respins are exhausted.
Free Spins offer a change of pace and greater depth, with a Power Stacks
feature enhancing wild and coin symbols to elevate potential.
Eruption Blaze Cashingo
showcases Slingshot Studios’ continued refinement of the Cashingo
franchise, delivering an engaging, well-paced gameplay experience.
Richard Vermaak, Creative Director at Slingshot Studios, said: “Our goal with Eruption Blaze Cashingo
was to take what players enjoy about Cashingo
and give it more room to develop.
“The combination of the Cashingo
and Power Stacks
mechanics introduces a dynamic element to the base game, and the enhanced ULTRA Link&Win
feature adds clear progression as the grid expands. We are delighted with how the experience comes together.”
David Reynolds, Director of Games Strategy & Partner Management at Games Global, added: “Eruption Blaze Cashingo
is a strong addition to our portfolio and a great evolution of the Cashingo
concept. Cash and jackpot coins open up new ways for the game to build, while the updates to the ULTRA Link&Win
feature bring more variety to each round.
“Slingshot Studios has continued to grow the series in a way that feels natural and engaging.”
