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! |

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.”

I don't blame Churchill for this. It's their agreement with NBC. If you want to take issue that is where it should be directed.
The "pay wall" for the Kentucky Derby is ridiculous. NBC needs to reconsider it.

The real problem here is that the suits involved in the process, both CDI and NBC, are more determined to draw the Housewives from wherever fans than the core bettor.

Someone might want to inform NBC its in bad taste to play slo mo replays of accidents also.

Lacking transparency when replays not shown. Check.
