You're right, they did show Laurel... I saw the race I wanted to see, but not the outcome I wanted to see... :roll:

The whole East Coast is a mess on home signals. I can go to the OTB in PA and see NY, but not at home. I can bet it from home, but not see it on The Racing Channel. I get Laurel and all Magna tracks, however. We can't get HRTV here, but I don't think they get NY. TVGames is only satellite here and you may get NY, since NY sold it's rights to YouBet and they might have sold it to TVG. All very confusing and costing each other money, no doubt. It was all triggered by the NYRA deal last year when they were defaulting and needed immediate cash.

However, at Saratoga this year, you could watch and play Delaware, Monmouth, Philly, Del Mar and Arlington. Never saw that before.

Maybe someday they'll sort this all out, or maybe not.
