RAILBIRDS WEBSITE
Redesigning Horse Racing
for the NEXT GENERATION.
Make horse racing accessible, engaging, and exciting for a new generation of fans.

Horse racing has long been steeped in tradition — but for newcomers, it can feel complex and exclusive. That’s why Woodbine Entertainment partnered with NGEN to reimagine the Railbirds digital experience. By transforming a content-heavy, insider-focused platform into a sleek, intuitive, and welcoming space, NGEN delivered a bold new vision for the sport. The result? A mobile-friendly, storytelling-rich site that demystifies the race day experience and invites the next generation to join in.

With a tone that’s friendly and curiosity-driven, the site turns a complex sport into an experience that’s discoverable, enjoyable, and visually striking.

A confusing interface alienates potential fans. NGEN helped Railbirds simplify the sport’s complex terminology, data, and culture into a digestible, engaging experience. Interactive content, clear navigation, and bite-sized explainers turned intimidation into inspiration — making first-time visitors feel confident and excited to explore more.
