Everything in life that's alive now has an IPHONE application.....since you can watch every MLB game played by every team at any time day or night. It is only a matter of time before you'll have an application that broadcast races live from major tracks.......I predict that KE will be first just like they are with all tech. innovation.

May I ask where you heard about this? I haven't gotten an e-mail from Sirius in ages and there was nothing about it on their website.

Major props to Sirius/XM for listening to their subscribers. I put Steve's "At the Races" at the top of every listener survey I fill out for them.

Glad it's on XM too so I can listen while driving my wife's car also.

Damn, they beat me to the punch. I was thinking of writing something like that, someday. That might be enough to make me get an iPhone next time around, especially if it lets you track individual bets.

Sorry I haven't had the opportunity to respond to this... Am waiting for the Email Sirius Sports is sending with details of how it all is going to lay out. The first thing that has happened though is that XM listeners now receive ATR on Ch. 243 which is part of basic subscriptions... (We were on Ch. 104 as part of the Best of Sirius package).

What's apparent is that SiriusXM is pleased with the horse racing interest from subscribers and the potential to add new subscribers with wider racing programming. More as it I know it...

That's awesome fortunately I heard a commercial yesterday on XM about the move to 243 after tuning into 104. Also great job keeping it under control after that bad beat in the 9th.
