There is no reason to show Tampa Bay Downs on tape delay when you are only covering 3 frigging tracks. I'm certain most bettors would opt for a live racing call vs. a real time post parade of 10k claimers at Aqueduct. Senseless. Hopefully they can bring in a producer that has a clue.
Why can't Tampa, Fairgrounds, and Oaklawn all be shown live on the HRTV channel and let TVG air the three tracks you mentioned. TVG can show stakes races like they did yesterday for the Southwest.
Yesterday Santa Anita and Fairgrounds were basically on top of each other. Couldn't watch Fairgrounds live on TV and there's no way I'm waiting up to ten minutes so I'm watching it on my phone. That seems like major BS now.
