That industry thoroughbred, Chimera Technology, has announced it has completed, and is ready to launch, a new online horseracing platform for the US market, which will offer punters live video streaming and real-time live odds from most major North American racetracks.

The company adds that it is currently working on expanding its network to include odds from racetracks in Europe and Asia.
