Title: And how did this happen...?
Post by: Delmar Deb on October 24, 2005, 10:40:27 PM

Apparently HRTV has an exclusive to televise the BC draw on Wednesday.  TVG carries Belmont and is there for the works; ESPN has a couple of BC specials; NBC is televising the big show...and only a few thousand HRTV customers will be able to see the draw???

I suppose that TVG will supply periodic \"updates\" during their Works show which airs at the same time as the draw, but that\'s not enough to get a seasoned handicapping veteran to tune in, let alone John Q. Public.  

Maybe someday, someone will realize that both the product (racing) and information about the product (horses) should be put out there for all to see and use...if anyone is interested in keeping the sport alive, that is!

I definately agree , All TVG acc\'nts in NY were cancelled recently . Unfortunately , those at the executive level who would be in a position to something positive for racing , basically don\'t want to know about it ...
