Title: Dubai Races???
Post by: Bull on March 31, 2007, 10:00:45 AM
Wait, so you guys are saying there are big races going on in Dubai right now??? Those of us with TVG have no idea. But in TVG\'s defense, they did give us extensive coverage of the Tampa Bay Race 2 post parade, and a rousing interview with John Lee at Aqueduct to talk about Inner Track racing. Give me a break!!! If anyone has TVG through Direct TV, please write them and ask them to put HRTV on the pacakge instead or in addition to TVG. I need real racing, real coverage and real insight. This is a joke.

TVG is destined to become the network of the leaky roof and bull ring race
tracks. I am lead to believe that they will not have Churchill this Spring.

ABC seems to be covering the Dubai races on tape delay.

All you need to know about Racing\'s pervasive image and marketing problems is
that Florida Derby will not be shown on network TV or on cable. The race will,
however, be \"streaming\" on NBClive.com

Despite how bad tvg is, hrtv is worse, if that is possible.

Did HRTV show the Fla Derby or not.

Their coverage was so quick to get back to Santa Anita to interview jocks and trainers for a 1x down the hill that I wasn\'t sure. And what I did see was that live or tape delay. Not sure but I did get to see the fifth at Bay Meadows live so they did a GREAT JOB!!!
