Why not have an East Coast base at a major track there and provide the same type of coverage that they give Hollywood and Del Mar?

On the flip side, I would also be thrilled with one person in the handicapping pod, just setting up, showing and giving results for every race as it goes off.

I just don't understand how Betfair who's trying to get a foothold in the country is going to develop more of a fanbase and more importantly bettors by continuely dropping tracks/content from it's roster. You would think that adding tracks/races would be the way to develop buisness.
They only put an effort($$$$$) in where they are the exclusive provider of that track.
Hollywood, Delmar, Monmouth, Woodbine etc.... are all TVG exclusive except for an occaisional big day.
