Question about HRTV and/or TVG. Do they telecast all the races on a card at a track or do they just pick & choose ?

sometimes theyll only show the partial card of a track, this information youll find on their respecive websites. 1 thing that irritates the hell outta me is tvg wont show you a live race from calder or arlington and will show em on tape delay sometimes just so you can see a frickin live post parade from NY

That's the truth. They prioritize the NY and CA races -- possibly because it's more betting handle. To me, HRTV is much better. They talk more about the racing and also show more races on time. TVG talks way too much about their Pick 4 tickets and such -- some of the staff there clearly have ego issues. They'll spend 20 minutes talking about their Pick 4 and Pick 6 tickets (few of which ever hit) while you're left wondering if they are going to show any racing on time. I could frankly care less what people like Todd Schmuck or Matty Carrothers play in their tickets.
