All I know of in HD are stakes races which can be found on Youtube

i was going to ask if there was anywhere to get HD replays for NYRA tracks but i guess not. The replays currently are really bad and seem to be getting worse, really sucks when i forget to dvr the races on tvg. I try really hard to take real good notes while watching but some times you miss things you know ..

In Pennsylvania, they are likely afraid that too many fans would spot the jockeys throwing buzzers onto the infield after they use them. It's much harder to see them fly on fuzzy replays.

This is really pathetic and unacceptable. A total joke that tracks don't offer HD replays.

I'm at the point where if anyone even remotely speaks to me during a live race or during the HD replay (on track), I twitch and put my hand out (as a stop sign) to capture notes as I know I won't have another chance to watch in HD.

It's pathetic.

Hd at del mar isn't even what I'm shooting for, I'm just trying to see a replay that doesn't look like I'm looking thru a dirty window, like the one shown in the courtroom scene in My Cousin Vinny.

The leading jockeys at Penn didn't get that way due to their riding skill. I used to watch with good binoculars and couldn't count all the buzzers I've seen thrown onto the infield at Penn.

The sad part is, if I can see them, the stewards can see them and they did nothing about it.

Anyone thinking of a career as a jockey at Penn should take some courses in basic electronics and DC current. :D

Instead of what is a yute, Track Execs are asking what is Eigch Tee :lol:

I can't tell if it is my aging eyes or if in celebration of sixty years Turf Paradise brought back most of the original video equipment from 1956, but replays look like they came from the hands of Monet.

It really does look like we're watching through a cloudy tv and cloudy contacts :bang: :bang: :bang:

I'll never forget, I bet a horse last year, I could be wrong but I think the horse sneezed or shook her head. She was off a beat slow and overcame a nasty slow pace to win.

Because I was there live and watched it live on HD at Belmont, I knew what happened. I bet her next out and made a good hit.

I watched the replay on regular quality and all I saw was off slow.

Huge difference.

yea, i found myself doing some guessing today. One thing you always catch is when the jockey drops the whip. shockingly how many times this doesn't get mentioned or picked up in the charts, but clear as day in hd

just exactly what are you looking for in the video that SD will not allow you to see?

Horses range of motion, jockeys hand motion/position .. if the replay was even in reg. sd this might not be a problem but these replays look like they are being recorded thru a potato. Some are so bad i got to replay the damn race mutable times just to see if horse really got steadied or if jock was just clowning, gets especial tricky in them tougher angles. You also get to take a great look at the physical appearance of the horses in HD.

Um, that equipment never left the plant.

And trust me, it's not a whole lot prettier live. :D

The NYRA Mobile app offers replays in HD. Don't believe the regular website has been upgraded yet for whatever reason.

Still don't understand why Twinspires TV(and even their other platforms) don't stream HD for those tracks that broadcast that way. Xpressbet is the only ADW I know of that does do it(but has video limits since I don't use that account to wager at all) along with the RTN online service.

Sadly due to various reasons, I had to go to RTN for unlimited yearly HD replays.

Like the product. Sad though, that other free options are not available.

The new NYRA app is ok but an app is not the same as my PC.
