High resolution cameras

I recall it only being a few, but does anybody know which tracks actually do carry a high resolution broadcast of the race?

Can tell you Parx is NOT one of them...

And has anybody announced recently that they will actually be doing an upgrade of their cameras?

Keenland by far is the best. Would be nice to see all races with such clarity.

Would be nice wouldnt it, they say its just too pricey but you see homemade videos on Youtube in HD, you think a race track could afford a couple cameras. Is Horse Racing the last billion dollar sport not to be televised in HD....welcome to 2013 horse racing.

It can't cost that much - certainly can be planned and saved for.

But with the casino/track combinations - you know that spending money on the track side is not a priority. In fact many would love to be relieved of the "burden" of operating a track and just fill the place with more slot machines.
