Is anything but the oaks on tv?
 
Looking through the channel listings, all i find is an hour block on bravo... are any of these races actually going to be televised?

If you don't get HRTV or (TVG for replays), you're screwed.
No ESPN or ESPN2 coverage.

If you get ESPN Classic (Directv channel 208) they're playing a bunch of old Derbys starting at noon I think and running most of the afternoon including 1978 and I think including most from the 80s and 90s.

Thanks for the ESPN Classic heads up. I was thinking this would just be specials I'd seen before. C'mon Slew!

So no way to see Rachel online? Bugger. I'll have to wait for them to post the video I guess.

Anybody wanting to watch Genuine Risk kick a little tail, her Derby's coming up on ESPNC. Did they ever figure out why Plugged Nickle bore out? Did he ever end up getting hurt? I just heard them mention it, then go on to pick Rumbo.

If you have to mute them, you most certainly would have to mute any of the mainstream networks if they happened to be covering it. I haven't watched them in years. Simply brutal.

I'm a track feed guy all the way. I have the volume up on the track feed and the tv muted, no matter what channel is showing the race.

Hearing Howard Cosell again is awesome.
