SugarCastle Review

SugarCastle's animations and graphics have a vintage sports inspiration, and SugarCastle claims to ‘take you on a journey to an era of style’.

Firstly, it must be stated that Sugar Castle doesn’t offer anything that isn’t out of the ordinary for a BetCloud bookmaker. This includes perks such as Same Race Multis and Same Games Multis, Quaddies, Protest Payout, Mystery Bets, Blended Bets, Best Tote and Protest Payout.

The odds by SugarCastle are reasonable. At times, they can surpass major bookies and other times fall short, but generally, it's give or take 10-20 cents.

For example, at Manawatu Sportsbet had on fixed odds King Harvest $2.80, Jane’s Panama $4.60 and Goldstar Koda $5.50. SugarCastle offered $3.00 for King's Harvest, $4.30 for Jane's Panama and $5.00 for GoldStar Koda. SugarCastle was able to offer slightly better odds for the favourite but less for the second and third market elect.

The SugarCastle app is a bit tricky to use. This is because the animations and graphics, along with the colour scheme, are a little too heavy. The yellow background can sometimes be overpowering, and with the black text, it can often be hard to read. The app is glitchy at times and crashes, so there is work to be done there.

Live streaming is not on offer. SugarCastle does not provide tips. Expect basic analysis on the occasional runner with comments along the lines of - ‘Away Early’, ‘Favourite Distance’ and so on.

Customer support is 24/7, but has been reported to be inaccurate on the App Store. It is also worth noting that the App Store reviews are alarming, with more negative ones than positive.

Many of the sports markets on offer by SugarCastle are thin, but the racing markets are reasonable. Expect nothing in the department of promotions and offers also seems non-existent.

Overall, there's some work for SugarCastle to do, and other BetCloud bookmakers have more to offer. SugarCastle receives a very bleak 2.2/5 stars.

The SugarCastle app is hard to use and navigate. The animations and graphics, along with the colour scheme, are too heavy. The yellow background can often be overpowering, and with the black text, it can be hard to read.

There is a solid range of local and international racing markets available, and most of what TAB can offer. Sports markets are more scarce but decent for AFL/NRL.

SugarCastle does not offer tips. For a bookmaker who can provide tips, head to BaggyBet or TerryBet.

SugarCastle does provide basic racing analysis on the occasional runner with comments along the lines of - ‘Away Early’, ‘Favourite Distance’ and so on. At times these are not factually correct, so be careful if you are following.

There are no speed maps or any other racing analysis.

SugarCastle does not provide live streaming nor do they offer live betting.

SugarCastle's odds are highly competitive and don’t always match major bookmakers. For example at Manawatu, Sportsbet had a fixed odds price of $2.80 on King Harvest, $4.60 on Jane’s Panama and $5.50 on Goldstar Koda. SugarCastle offered $3.00 for King's Harvest, $4.30 for Jane's Panama and $5.00 for GoldStar Koda.
