The announcement from Dave Johnson about the 24/7 startup was premature. As I mentioned here last week, from what I was told by Sirius management, there are negotiations going on to finalize a deal for an additional race broadcast feed, but they have not been finalized.

In advance of that, "At the Races" was moved from 'Best of Sirius' XM Ch. 104 to XM Ch. 243 where all standard XM subscribers can reach it, and "Down the Stretch" (Saturdays 10a-12n) was moved to Sirius 126 so that all the current race related broadcasting is in the same place.
