TAB’s Blackbook feature allows you to save and follow your favourite thoroughbred, greyhound, and harness runners, and your favourite jockeys, harness drivers, and trainers.

For your Blackbook entries, you can choose when and how you’re notified/reminded about your entries’ upcoming races. For example, you can choose to be notified/reminded by:
 

• Email on the day before and/or day of the race
• SMS on the day before and/or day of the race
• Pushlert on the day before and/or day of the race, or
• All or none of the above.

If one or more of your Blackbook entries are in action in the next 24 hours, you’ll be sent a Blackbook notification advising of the race location and start time that your selections are running in.

If you have multiple TAB accounts, you will have one Blackbook per account (i.e., your Blackbooks will not be linked).
