Sirius has been very supportive of ATR for a long time, and I understand their need to promote exclusive content in their most marketable slots. They have created some new programming, and want to get it on during 4-7p and seem to have little room for all of us. There are details to work out yet, but I'm trying to find ways to deliver the show to listeners when and how they want it. Thanks to everyone for their heartening eagerness to have 'At the Races' as part of their lives.

Their new programming seems to be just TVG. If you think watching TVG is bad, try to listen to it on the radio.

Heard from them Tuesday and they are supposed to be making whatever arrangements they need to... Might hear more by the end of the day. They said they're as anxious to get this done as I am. Imagine nothing will be available on XM for a few weeks anyway based on their current World Cup coverage on 243.

Glad to hear Deb... I hope people can fit the live or replay show in their schedule or at least get podcasts for listening later. The show will be up online as stream and archive by noon daily, so afternoon listeners can conceivably get a download by early afternoon and still enjoy it on the drive home. KC and I will be working on info to help everyone that wants to do that. I'm doing the best I can, and am grateful to SiriusXM for wanting to keep ATR going on their schedule.

That's the most important part-the show remains on the air.

Is Davidowitz ever going to come back on the show? If so, is there a scheduled day this is going to happen?

I trade one commute coverage for the other out here on the west coast....now I hear you while driving to work, rather than coming from work.

Glad the contract got worked out, that was not easy I'm sure.

That's the thing about Davidowitz and Steve, they're classy guys and this wasn't a personal tiff so I have every hope Davidowitz will be back 'professing' in short order. Don't get me started on Ray Paulick's take on the other hand. Personally, I felt that blog was incredibly unfair to Steve. It was like I was reading the horse racing version of the National Inquirer with all the fake drama and spin. The disagreement was a fair one, and frankly a little respectful but heartfelt yelling needed to go down over this subject matter.

Enjoy great horses for the love of God. I think we should be talking about the likelihood that one or the other of the ladies at the center of all this will end up with no Eclipse award for the year. That interests me.

Congrats Steve, are you going to prep the BBQ during commercials?

I prefer the old time, but it will be nice to have you back on the air.
