Default Tvg & Hrtv

So I have Comcast in NJ and could not watch the Lecomte Stakes due to the fact I only get TVG and not HRTV. I assume it was on HRTV. But my question is how does it work which channel gets which tracks? Do they buy the exclusive rights to such tracks? Secondly is there a place on line to watch HRTV?

HRTV.com $9.99 a month to subscribe and watch live. Well worth it.

Tvg streams on computer and iPod are excellent. You could watch it in there

The production quality of HRTV is similar to a community college CCTV. In the blink of an eye you can go from a live race that looks like it's in the early 80's to a Kyle Mooney SNL skit

Smarty, I started my HRTV subscription last summer, only complaint would be as Pants point out with the picture quality. I was plugging the I-pad in with HDMI cord, and still do some times. My son got me a Chromecast for Christmas, so I've been watching that way lately. I believe Roku or AppleTV would work also, but don't have any info on them.
On weekends HRTV does Santa Anita live and uncut, picture is in HD

Hope that helps a little

We miss our FIOS. Not available here in NC. Not huge fans of TWC.
