Despicable Evil Empire,CDI, at it again.NBC Sports channel is carrying quite a few CD races Fri and Sat....most cable services have NBCSC

TVG2 is carrying signal,think, if you have it.

If you want it bad enough, and have Dish, you can get the CD feed from these guys: https://www.rtn.tv/package-tv.aspx

Like I said, you gotta want it pretty bad!

NBC Sports is a better option on two counts.
1) They will have a beautiful HD picture, while TVG is still standard def on my cable system.
2) No Todd Schrup.

Noon to 4 PM on NBCSH. Switches to local NBC affiliate at 4 PM. Outstanding picture quality.

Do we get more of the Johnny and Tara show?

Outstanding picture quality is worthless if they dont actually show the Fing races on TV

If I understand this correctly, it appears that TVG2 will have the CD card (just like today)... This is the old HRTV channel... If this isn\'t available, Twinspires on the IPad...

All right crisis solved Got a Twin Spires account and I downloaded Klowdtv on my ROKU so I should be all right.
Johnny & Tara show whatever happened to Tarzan and Jane?

Judging from past telecasts, you\'ll see the under cards with little analysis and sometimes a post parade. Filler will be worthless bullshit to players.
