They've improved the website (not a customer) but what they've failed in doing is replacing the top on-air talent.

Your complaints are understandable. I, for one, am amazed year in and year out they're wasting airfare for Saratoga when Mr. Byk is on site day in and day out.

Big missed opportunity.

Yankee game today was pretty good even though I kept getting interrupted by my Iphone alarm when it was post time at Saratoga.

Great point Coach.

It's only a matter of time until they wake up and realize the wonders he would do in a bigger role.

Between nyra.com wnd TVG had a horrible Travers Day. This is not rocket science, people want to watch and bet this.And they keep shifting me to $5000 claimers at MTH/Betfair. Nyra just did a sloppy job in providing bandwidth. Plus Monmouth is going to be a Home Depot, just like every other Betfair track. They should deport the whole bunch of them.

Although Mr. Byk may be trying to cash tickets. It would complicate my life. I really like Steve and pretty much hate TVG. I would be torn apart.

Maybe quit watching or go somewhere to bet. This is getting old. There was nothing wrong with coverage today.

Never anything wrong with TVG when Todd has the day off.

Edit: Spoke too soon :(

As a Pennsylvania resident, his options are limited.

I just mute the channel until they're in the gate, you should try that Jnunan.

Not to poke the fire, but NYRA live video WAS trash today. They're usually my 'go to' while at work. I'm chalking it up to not being able to handle the amount of traffic today. No biggie.

Todd had a winner today, and it wasn't Flintshire :D


He picked Arrogate. Nice pick. Gift Box not being connect cost us the superfecta today! Ughhhh, swing & a miss !

Ok, maybe I'll go over knicks house. I don't care who does it, we need everyday coverage of races in the US. We need it to interest people in the product. Nyra has been doing that and except for the glitches today, has been doing a super job.TVG is all gambling. Todd's got this, Scott has that, Matt has a Pick 4. Joachim has this and Hoover has some quarterhorses. When not gambling it's coins, hoses and non-stick pans.

They have a great market. Contrary to belief, young folks do like racing.

Give them something to enjoy. Make fans of them.

I agree Declan. I just think they got blasted. Otherwise, I'm a biig fan. Maybe th8s means it is more popular than expected. Good thing.

Pants, I. Get kicked out every 5 mins..... It's very frustrating

I guess I don't understand the issue. I live in Pennsylvania. I have a TVG account and watch the live SPA feed and wager. I watch the live feed of any track I want. I also have a PARX Phonebet account just in case TVG goes down for some reason. Then there's always www.rtn.com that you can subscribe to for 25.00/month online.

strikes again on a fairly important race day, and it isnt even a TC or a BC day

i am assuming they get ddos attacked.

Bored
 

When is shrupps contract signed thru?
Tired of selecting mute when he speaks.
Its all about him
:zz:

Shrupp is really my least favorite person on the air and may be the only one I actively can't stand to listen to.

Today, at Keeneland, he was over the top in derisively making fun of Ellis Park and any shipper from there. It was as though his brain was still 5-10 years in the past and he has just not noticed the purses/connection overhaul that has taken place there, especially this year. The fact is, in 2016, you could make the case that the best racing in the summer outside of NYRA and Del Mar is at Ellis Park. Their overnight purses are just slightly less than TVG's sacred Santa Anita. As Steve Byk has highlighted, not only did they draw pretty much the full Kentucky horsemen contingent but also trainers like Casse, Mott etc. 7 of the top 8 trainers this year are guys with yearly Saratoga strings.

Long story short, the horse racing world follows the money and the money has made Ellis Park quite competitive. For Todd Schrupp to ignore this and literally belittle its product shows that he is either totally unprepared, clueless or both.

Again...SA superseeds any track
 

Keeneland just ran a race on TVG, a GIII Pin Oak Valley View Stakes (R8)
And what do we have, a split screen with a $16,000 Claimer at Santa Anita. Wow, just after the race(s), TVG Mr Shrupp sez here's the full audio of the SA race. Whens it going to stop? Why Why Why is Santa Anita so important to TVG to televise there races. Just sad, very sad!!
:zz:

Have to agree no way should they split screen with a Graded Stake.

I'm pretty sure it's all contractual deals. Some of it was original TVG and some of it was done in the HRTV buyout.

I'm not sure where the Coins came from.

However, late at night TVG2 is replaying some nice semi-old races.

Todd and Simon are taking pictures with "TVG fans" right now at Keeneland.

Line forms near the 3 old guys eating burgoo.

Contractual ? What crock of chid? What's gonna happen? The contract police gonna come arrest them for showing the graded stake ?

Are you really that naive?

Direct Tv
 

Speaking of HRTV, Directtv never carried that network, very upsetting. For that matter Direct Tv hasn't even added TVG2 since the creation.
I wonder why?
Does Stronach Stables still own any part of HRTV/TVG2?

I knew Stronach had/has a fued with DirectTv in the past.
What a deal for the horse players.
Kaputz

I have more common sense in my little finger than you. Why don't you explain it to everyone.

Hello , TVG, it's Santa Anita, how dare you show that stake race on a split screen against our 15 claimers. We have a contract you know. We don't care about that race only ours. If you do it again we will hold our breath and stamp our feet and then maybe sue you or something.
Sorry about that Santa, it won't happen again till next week

Fast forward three years...

Your mother looks rough in that pic pants

Since I don't have any common sense at all, the answer is yes to my question about you being naive.

Wicked burn.

What you're implying is to goad a Celt into suing for a blatant contract violation.

The Celts are champions. You played yourself.

Glad TVG and CDI came to an agreement to televise the BC. Isolating coverage benefits nobody.

I wish TVG would find me, made a bet last week but today I don't live in NJ.
Been here 25 year's WTF.

Is tvg showing races on delay? I dont get nbcsn

Got a wonderful view today of Brett Farve trimming his nasal hair on TVG.
