News International could acquire Racing Post in bid to enter sports betting scene

The Sun and Times publisher News International is now in the midst of negotiations to possibly purchase Racing Post, the UK's leading horse racing publication that is a part of the Spotlight Sports Group.

The latter is a provider of betting media, content, and data that is owned by the private equity firm Exponent.

The turnover would be ideal for News International's long-term objective of delving even deeper into the intricate world of online sports betting and gaming.
