Default ESPN2 Sunshine Millions 5-6 p.m.

That's 5-6p.m. EST. I'd like to know exactly which races they're showing. I'm thinking it's GP's 9th and 10th along with SA's 6th and 7th

Nice to have national television for the game, so I hope Santa Anita doesn't produce something awful

"The Sunshine Millions will cover Races 7-10 at Gulfstream and 4-7 at Santa Anita. Starting at 3:02 p.m., they will alternate between racetracks in rapid-fire fashion every 15 minutes or so over an hour and 45 minute period. All races will be televised – live and tape-delayed – on ESPN2 from 4-5 p.m. CT."

Best part is the second half will be on HD, if you have it. Just everything set up for HD over Christmas, so looking forward to putting it to use...

Looks like it, Gator.

FWIW, if anyone else gets a chance, make sure to send a comment to ESPN about covering racing. It is important when we get any coverage, so let themk know.

Can't say it will make any difference, but it can't hurt...

Kudos to ESPN once again!

They say that the only guarantee in life is "Death and Taxes".....
you can add wacky racing surfaces and ESPN with they're "sh*ty" coverage of thoroughbred racing!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I was so pissed, that I watch the replays on Capital OTB instead......

Capital OTB coverage RULES!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

ESPN has ALWAYS dropped the ball covering the horses. It just isn't important enough to them. I have complained MANY times in the past 5 years. I thought that they have been getting better however they HAD to televise the end of S/W Missouri State and Murray State???? Come on! Although did anyone else notice Murray State Racers logo? It's a horse and jockey centered in the "M".
