Solomon the King has arrived in the new video slot from Red Rake Gaming to provide all players with his power and wisdom
Red Rake Gaming, the specialist casino games provider, has just released its latest game, a fantastic 6×10 reel video slot with an entertaining symbol fusion mini game, a free spin feature with multipliers of justice and 1 million different ways to win.
This slot game includes the well-known Cascading Reels feature, which can also be found in several of the company’s other video slots, such as the Asp of Cleopatra, Viva las Vegas, Twin Harlequin and Tiger and Dragon. In these types of games, winning combinations from a spin during both regular and free spin features will disappear and the gaps will be replaced by new symbols, giving the player the chance to win even more. A feature that is greatly appreciated by the company’s players.
In this new video slot, non-winning Solomon symbols are accumulated to provide a reward. Each spin without a win during the game’s regular feature will increase the multiplier that is shown in the left-hand Solomon panel, and once the progress bar has been filled, an entertaining mini game will be triggered.
In this new video slot, non-winning Solomon symbols are accumulated to provide a reward. Fill the progress bar in the Solomon panel to trigger an entertaining mini game.
The Solomon Mini Game begins with 3 initial spins and 7 Solomon symbols placed randomly in the reels. New symbols may appear in every spin, which can be fused with those that are already present to trigger interesting wins that continue to accumulate until the mini game is completed and the total win is displayed. Players will have the chance to win up to 2,100 times their bet!!!
The Free Spins Feature can be accessed by lining up 5 or more Respins during the same spin, which will be accumulated in the colorful side bar where players will need to complete all the letters of the word BONUS to win 8 free spins. There is also the chance to win even more spins with the +2, +4 and +8 values that appear after this word. If you don’t manage to collect the 5 Respins that you need to access the free spins feature, the bar will be cleared and you will start over again. Once they have entered the free spins feature, players can boost their win with random multipliers, with the chance to multiply it by up to x100 with each spin.
All games from Red Rake Gaming stand out due to their attention to detail, their availability in 22 different languages, their unique mathematics system and the fact that operators are provided with all the promotional tools and graphic material that they could need to launch the games successfully.
A fun video slot that is available as of today, 25th February, with all Red Rake Gaming operators.
World Pool, the largest globally commingled horse racing pools created and powered by the Hong Kong Jockey Club, will make its UK seasonal bow at Newmarket Racecourse on Saturday 4 May, where a brand new £50,000 initiative is being launched for jockeys.
For the first time the opening two Classics of the UK Flat season will both be World Pool events, with the QIPCO 1000 Guineas on Sunday 5 May becoming a new World Pool race this year and joining the 2000 Guineas run the day before.
Guineas weekend will also see the start of a new World Pool initiative, the World Pool UK & Ireland Jockeys’ Championship, where jockeys will compete to accumulate points across World Pool fixtures in the UK & Ireland.
For the winning jockey of every World Pool race in the UK and Ireland, points will be awarded based on the World Pool win dividend. The concept of this point system offers a level playing field for all jockeys, from leaders to rising stars, and their chances of winning are dictated by the public as reflected by their World Pool odds.
Beginning with the QIPCO 2000 Guineas, the competition will conclude on QIPCO British Champions Day at Ascot on 19 October, with the winner receiving £50,000 to be donated to a charity of their choice.
A further new addition to the World Pool calendar this year will be the Tattersalls Irish 1000 Guineas on Sunday 26 May. The Tattersalls Gold Cup, run on the same day, will also be a World Pool race for the first time, with prize money increased from €450,000 in 2023 to €500,000 this year.
Following the successful introduction of World Pool Moment of the Year in 2022 in Great Britain and Ireland, this will continue in 2024 covering all full World Pool meetings and will reward stable staff with cash prizes, as well as a VIP trip to Hong Kong for four people in 2025 to the overall winner.
One World Pool Moment of the Day will be selected at each full World Pool meeting with the winning groom receiving HK$40,000 (or equivalent – £4,000 in the UK and €4,000 in Ireland).
Michael Fitzsimons, Executive Director, Wagering Products of the Hong Kong Jockey Club, said: “It’s fantastic to be returning to the UK and Ireland with an extended World Pool fixture list this year now featuring the English and Irish 1000 Guineas, and we look forward to making these historic fillies’ Classics available to customers from around the world.
“In addition to the popular World Moment of the Day initiative, we’re excited to announce the new World Pool UK & Ireland Jockeys’ Championship, which will provide a different dimension and further competition to World Pool racedays right up until QIPCO British Champions Day in October.
“It’s a unique competition, with a jockey’s points being determined by World Pool win dividends, and a great initiative as there’s £50,000 up for grabs for the leading rider to donate to a charity of their choice. We are committed to giving money back to racing and good causes, and this seemed the perfect way to do that.”
Alex Frost, Chief Executive of the UK Tote Group, said: “It’s always an exciting time of year as the Flat season gets underway and we’re delighted that both the UK’s first Classics are World Pool events. City Of Troy has the potential to be a global superstar and we look forward to his seasonal reappearance being watched and bet on by 28 countries who play into the UK’s first World Pool event of 2024.
“Racing fans in the UK and Ireland will be able to access the huge global pools at tote.co.uk, on the Tote App and at racecourses which means excellent value is on offer, while the sport benefits from this increasingly important revenue stream.”
Martin Stevenson, Chief Executive Officer of Racecourse Media Group (RMG), which represents the media interests of The Jockey Club, Goodwood, and York Racecourses, said: “RMG looks forward to another exciting World Pool season in UK and Ireland, and will continue to work closely with the Hong Kong Jockey Club, UK Tote and our racecourses to grow both the sport’s revenues and global appeal.”
Amy Starkey, Managing Director, Jockey Club Racecourses, said: “We’re delighted to be partnering with the Hong Kong Jockey Club, and thank them for their support as we deliver three exciting World Pool days across the QIPCO Guineas Festival and the Betfred Derby Festival.
“For the first time in the UK, we have worked alongside World Pool to host a nine-race card on QIPCO 2000 Guineas Day. This will include the first Classic of the season, whilst we are also delighted to feature the following day’s three-year-old Classic Fillies’ race, the QIPCO 1000 Guineas, as a World Pool race for the first time.
“World Pool enables strong reinvestment back into British racing and working alongside them to secure these additional races is an important step as we continue to strengthen links with Hong Kong, engage more fans with British racing and strive to grow our sport.”
Brian Kavanagh, Chief Executive of the Curragh Racecourse, said: “We are delighted to extend our relationship with World Pool in 2024 with the Tattersalls Irish 1000 Guineas and the Tattersalls Gold Cup on 26 May and the Dubai Duty Free Irish Derby meeting on 30 June included in the programme.
“We had a very positive first experience with World Pool last year and look forward to building on it this year, bringing our racing to a wider audience. Irish horses have enjoyed great success internationally in recent years and we are delighted to be showcasing our best races through World Pool.
“Inclusion in World Pool has enabled us to increase prizemoney at the Curragh in 2024 and we look forward to developing this relationship further in the future.”

Award-winning provider highlights vast Latin American expertise at show
Full-service betting and gaming platform provider Sportingtech has introduced some of its newly-appointed Latin American team at this year’s BiS SiGMA Americas, showcasing how its local know-how and intuitive products can elevate any operator’s position in the region.
On-hand for the duration of the event in Sao Paulo was Marina Selmi, Latin America Regional Sales Manager, who outlined the full power of the supplier’s solution. Sportingtech’s expertise in the Latin American market was on display to more than 10,000 delegates, with the company boasting a comprehensive understanding of customer preferences across the region.
Laura Manzella, Senior Account Manager, was also present to provide insight on the current landscape. Manzella was able to inform partners of the latest regulatory updates and detailed the provider’s most recent technological developments to highlight its robust products.
Sportingtech has made great strides in developing its Latin America-facing team in recent months, with boots-on-the-ground personnel keeping abreast of the changing legislative scene to ensure compliance.
The supplier places a huge emphasis on its people and takes pride in fostering a collaborative and supportive culture. To coincide with this, there have been several key hires in senior positions across the company to help accelerate growth, following Chief Executive Officer Tom Ustunel’s appointment in December of 2023.
This year’s event saw Sportingtech pick up another high-profile industry accolade as Ustunel (pictured) won the coveted Chief Executive Officer of the Year award. The win recognized the leadership and commitment he has brought to Sportingtech as the brand is primed for more growth across the globe in 2024.
“BiS SiGMA Americas is certainly one of the most important events in the calendar and we had a tremendous experience at this year’s show,” Ustunel said. “It was important for us to showcase our local team members who have acquired a comprehensive understanding of the region and how we can positively impact the offerings of current and prospective partners. With regulations in Brazil almost finalized and other markets showing unique appeal and growth potential, we are well-placed to exceed operators’ expectations across Latin America.”
