Some of us can't cope with the new graphics of the NYCOTB feed. (Could they make the font for the odds and exotic prices just a LITTLE BIT LARGER. I mean, we don't need the video feed, do we?)

I imagine a change to POLY would have many of the locals visiting one of the many bridges in the area.

Cushion track at Saratoga, I just threw up in my mouth a bit.

That is the NYRA feed, not OTB. I hate it.

Spoke with the NYRA TV consultant on Monday. He explained that the "new improved" graphics are not planned to be changed for each meet. Branding will change only. I voiced my technical opinions, which were asked for, and he will take them into consideration. It's a learning process.

However, new TV facilities (trailer trucks) have replaced old with state of the art equipment. New cameras, different views, graphic generators etc.
When additional system is complete (probably for Saratoga) NYRA will broadcast an HD signal.

Good news if TVG or HRTV ever gets HD

HD is probably a couple years away.
