Anyone know of any other way around it..I will not sign up for Twin Spires..Specifically because they are holding people hostage here to open an account with them..Just won't do it! There seems to be streams set for Derby Day, but nothing for today? Any ideas?

Thanks!

I have an account with TW and dont bet a cent through them....of course I live in a brain dead state that doesn't allow ADW. Watch all the races through them except for GP, NYRA, and Keeneland reason based on video quality, not availability

Considering that racing at Churchill is relevant for about two days a year these days, come Sunday, I would think that very few people will care that Churchill is not being shown on TVG or 4nj bets.

Update on TVG and Churchill Downs video..

John Asher, VP Racing Communictions, Churchill Downs: “TVG currently has rights to offer wagering on races at Churchill Downs Racetrack during the Spring Meet and we have made a proposal that would provide the network with streaming rights and enable it to televise most of our track’s Spring Meet races. Exceptions include the Kentucky Derby and Kentucky Oaks, and Derby Week stakes races that will be televised by our national broadcast partners (NBC Sports/NBC Sports Network). We feel our proposal is reasonable and would benefit both parties, and it remains on the table.”

Why the TVG exceptions when xpressbet,drf,nyra et al can show all streaming ? This is all BS by CD, i will bet much less because of it and loss of continuity.
. CD signal for the rest of the meet is a joke and not wanted .what a deal, ice in the winter. So much for industry cooperation to build the game.
