Horsemen ask Churchill to release Derby signal
By MATT HEGARTY

A group of horsemen's associations on Wednesday joined together in asking that Churchill Downs make the signal for Saturday's Kentucky Derby available to all account-wagering platforms.

The request was made by the National Horsemen's Benevolent and Protective Association, the Thoroughbred Horsemen's Association, the Thoroughbred Owners of California, and the Thoroughbred Owners and Breeders Association. They asked Churchill Downs to make the signal available to Youbet.com and Television Games Network, two large account-wagering operations that have not reached an agreement with Churchill on the right to carry the Derby as well as the signals from other Churchill-owned tracks.

So..any chance it happens? I say yes, but I'm an optimist.
