I'm not sure if the American public would welcome a horseracing show into their homes...there is plenty of action, danger and storylines to follow...if marketed the same as these other shows it could possibly work.

Sidenote: I believe falling into 34 degree water is much worse than running in 34 degree weather.

super answer, on a side note there was a show on pbs years ago about life on the horse farms and at the track. it followed the everyday goings on of the Boniface family who race and breed horses out of Maryland
