I went to listen to the replay at 6:30 am on my way to work and was disappointed to not here Steve & ATR but the replay show from the Meadowlands. The replay apparently was still running from 7 - 10.

And they cut off the live coverage just before the Marathon. Way to go, Sirius/XM!

TVG's Live Horseracing Coverage Available on SIRIUS XM Radio
What does this mean for "At the Races"? They don't mention anything about the 4pm-7pm time slot nor about the replay time slots. Sorry if I missed the announcement during the show this week...
TVG, America's horseracing network, today announced that SIRIUS XM Radio will simulcast TVG's live horseracing coverage to listeners nationwide on SIRIUS channel 126 and XM channel 243. Starting Friday, November 6, SIRIUS XM Radio will broadcast TVG's original programming as well as the network's live race calls from North America's premier race tracks. This broadcasting agreement makes TVG's television network content, broadcasted into over 33 million American households daily, available to more than 18 million SIRIUS XM listeners across the country. "We're very excited to extend TVG's comprehensive coverage of horseracing's top events to SIRIUS XM subscribers, giving racing fans across the nation another avenue to follow 'the Sport of Kings'," said Gerard Cunningham, president of Betfair US, parent company of TVG. "Listeners can tune in to hear all of the in-depth race analysis, handicapping advice and exclusive interviews airing on TVG in preparation for this weekend's Breeders' Cup."

I was shocked to hear a live call from Philly at 230 PM with no previous promotion but what can you expect. Promotion and Horse Racing are mutually exclusive....
Byk just picked the first 7 BC races cold and made the highlight of the broadcast day the gross national product of Arcadia he won on a bankroll that cost less than lunch in an elementary school. Nice job AGAIN Mr Byk... |

Too kind! It was a nice, nice day Friday at the Great Multi-Race Wagering Place. I only got word of the switch throw on the TVG audio while on the air Thursday... Knew it was coming but didn't know when. Talk of it had actually died down, so a lot of us thought there was a hitch. Should be fun for anyone preferring to hear anything about racing, and really demonstrates SiriusXM's commitment to the game.

From now on when I am at work doing graveyard shift I can listen to channel 126 when there is nothing else to listen to. I might actually keep my Sirius even though they are ticking me off.

Not too happy that the TVG replay has now taken over the 7-10am slot. Who really wants to listen to race replays from the previous night while driving to work? A replay of ATR seems perfect for the 7-10am slot so that people could listen to ATR on their way to and from work.
