HRTV vs TVG

[Mike A]

Have Comcast here, they only carry TVG. When I visit my son in SoCal he has both, just hoping someday Comcast gets HRTV someday

Have to admit, like some previous psoters, the mute is my friend.
I enjoy the work by Tom Amoss when he's on, prett much only during the Keeneland.

Comcast here too but to even get TVG, I would have to package it up with other channels that I do not want and pay more for "less". Comcast users should sned in their requests to add HRTV.......I did. and I would pay for the package if it were in it.

We only get TVG. My loss. Hopefully Comcast will soon get HRTV.

I have Comcast. Have been getting both HRTV and TVG for years now.

I'm pretty sure that TVG is standard with cable and HRTV is part of the "Sports Entertainment Package" for an additional $9 per month. Sports package includes several other channels like NFL Red Zone, ESPN Goal Line, Pac12 ntwrk, etc

You're right on that one. I have the sports package and HRTV is a part of it.

I agree, hrtv is the best. But at least you can watch the races on tvg. Hrtv is so 1990 in technology. Holy crap at least go digital.

Also. Who is. This. Guy. Called. Joaquin. Jaime. On. Tvg. Who. Has. To. Take. A. Long. Breath. After. Every. Word. He. Says. My god, he's awful.

If you like the NY Post - get TVG

If you prefer the Washington Post - get HRTV

Comcast offers both channels in some areas, and only TVG in others. Here in Philly it's only TVG and you need to pay the $9 a month for the upgraded package to get it.

I actually miss the old Philly Park Phonebet channel circa 2004 when they showed every major track and replays during the overnight hours. They eventually lost the rights to carry NYRA on the channel in 2005, but still carried everything else.
