I have never been happier since I got RTN!
GREAT service, the whole FOX show is on in its entirety everyday,
picture is better on my mini computer than any of my TVs.

I run two stream - one with the FOX show and one with 4 other tracks, Brady Bunch style, on mute until other races I want to bet show up.

Cannot recommend it any more.

Call, Rectum sucks. I get lots of channels that are not available to view all the time - TVG and FOX2 are pretty much always not available.

Was watching the show in the other room, on TV, having my Clam Chowder.....all I say if FOX is your only choice, I feel sorry for you - FOX are total idiots on covering the races.

F1 races on instead of baseball, then switch to motorcycles, which is supposed to be on F2......no alerts as to what is happening other than a quick comment before a commercial that F2 showing the next race, even though THEY are supposed to be showing the motorcycle racing...

FOX Sports programming director........

It could be worse, the coverage could still be on ABC/ESPN which pretty much brought the lowest ratings of the Triple Crown before they switched over to NBC.

Screw FOX - go to You Tube or RTN - RTN is much better all around - you can watch ALL the tracks on ONE CHANNEL.

Show is soooooo much better than anything TVG has EVER done.
They actually talk handicapping and not Todd's Boogie boarding.
I've been watching it on YouTube recently, who gave me four months of commercial free. FOX has a little better HD audio/video quality, but I can't stand the horizontal scroll bar at the bottom with the out of town scores. Spoils my recordings.

Besides that I think the show is great, well except for Greg Wolf. He's Ok on TVG but not ready for prime time. IMO.

The RTN video is very very good - the whole package is FAR more than I thought I would get.

Hats off to FOX for their coverage, but I just thing it would be better to have it handled better. Some of the changes from 1 to 2 seem needless, as they mirror another absurd change on the other FOX channel.

Question

Looks like today's first race has been postponed for an hour?

Friday's first post at Saratoga moved to 2:10 p.m. Eastern

The New York Racing Association, Inc. (NYRA) has delayed first post for Friday's nine-race card at Saratoga to 2:10 p.m. Eastern due to an ongoing technical issue with AmTote, NYRA's tote system provider.

Nice decision by NYRA, running a Grade I in a deluge.
