They haven’t posted the tv schedule for the weekend on BH yet.

TVG of course will cover all races except for Belmont. FS1 coverage starts today at 1pm est, not sure what other tracks they’ll show with Belmont(maybe Keeneland?)

My brother says Comcast is showing TVG’s Trackside Live, but my Dish service has been showing other sports, so not sure what Directtv is showing.

When they do post a schedule, I’ll put it here.

ABR continue’s it’s takeover of racing on the east coast, now they’ll show Woodbine racing. So I wonder if TVG loses that too?

eta; not sure if they’ll show on FS or just YouTube?

Nope. You have to watch on TVG.com, lower right corner where races and mtp are, shows that. Not sure if Saratoga will be the same.

These past couple of years, as you know, Saratoga has been on FS2 during their summer meet- will that change too? that would be such a shame: i so look forward to it--- What happened with TVG and their inability to show Belmont and do we know if this applies to all tracks in N.Y. including Saratoga?

Fox has contract with Belmont and Churchill now, so prohibits TVG from showing live races from Belmont, not sure if TVG can also show Saratoga , but I think so? TVG wouldn’t commit to proposal offered by those tracks so FS has rights to them, although TVG2 could show Churchill live.
