Recognize that the Cup itself created part of the issue of not being able to fit everything into the window provided. Moving one of Saturday's races to Friday could fix this glitch of the Fillies having to be shown on tape.

Yes they are using it for now to support an upstart network.

ESPN did at one time as well, now they televise football games. Of course they also used to televise arm wrestling and ping pong as well.

This is about ratings and not windows, they could get the windows they need with better ratings.
