Default HEGARTY: TVG twists as THG & TrackNet talk

Do not miss Matt Hegarty's take on latest ADW developments...

http://www.drf.com/news/article/99904.html

If the THG (Thoroughbred Horsemen's Group) and TrackNet reach a long term accord, TVG is a chicken-in-a-pot. TrackNet must finally have gotten the green light from CDI to talk to THG after nearly a year of standoffishness by Louisville. If it comes off, the THG has proven for horsemen and owners that there was indeed strength in numbers and solidarity to be had by standing together..

Not to throw TVG under the bus, but a TrackNet-THG accord would go a long way towards solving the frequent stalemates the platforms have had the last 36 months. There is still the matter, as Hegarty touches upon, of the state statutes that inhibit equitable deal-making for the parties, but that has to be addressed seperately.
