My guess is that you still have to call in Keeneland which kinda sucks but whatever

only thing tvg has left on thier own is hollywood(how long till thats torn down), kenneland and del mar. who i think want to be and will be loyal to tvg just by how they talk tvg up, but might be forced into going to both also.

They don't have exculsive on Hollywood either, California mandated that all ADW's had access

No idea, but even I have never wagered on that crap. If you can't get me wagering on it, then it probably isn't a good idea

Hollywood, Keeneland and Del Mar. In other words, if you have HRTV, you never have a reason to tune into TVG again and see them shamelessly touting an endless array of P4 tickets.

yeah i think tvg with the money they saved on letting the churchill tracks let go thought they would use that to outbid hrtv on exclusive rights to nyra.

since tvg always gave ny tracks full attention even when they were ignoring other races that were going off and could have showed them.

tvg prob thought since they treated there tracks so well with coverage on tvg , that nyra would show some form of loyalty come contract time, but surprise surprise. nyra had to do what was best for nyra and i think it took tvg by surprise when they found out hrtv would also be carrying nyra.

I think it is more monkey see / monkey do. California started this and others are following it. Who would have thought that the more people that can wager on your track, means more money?
