Congrats to all but if you are going to watch they should add Millie Ball, easy on the eyes.

Living in a blackout state, I'm very eager to see racing coverage without the fluff that networks throw into Derby and BC broadcasts. I've emailed everyone that I know who is already into racing as well as those in whom I've been trying to cultivate an interest to let them know to watch!

Simon Bray will be fodder for the man in the midst of a storm he'd much rather forget.

I really hope that Simon Bray and Greg Wolf do not act like they do on TVG.

I have no doubt that Andy, the Mig, and Alyssa will be great and show horse racing in a good light, but some of the stuff Bray and Wolf is out there. Wolf was a cinch for the job considering his already contract with Fox Sports, but I am surprised that Bray is on there. Would have much rather seen Hoover. Bray probably has the TV look I guess.

Such a great opportunity for the game considering how much sports networks are growing.

Very nice inaugural broadcast! Horse racing really looks great on HDTV.

Personally, I was flattered when my Tweet got read on air by the Mig. "39-1 Lochte upsets! Great rail skimming ride" just after running of Gulfstream Park Turf Handicap. Plus, it got retweet, too. @wire2wirewin

Great start to the Tour.. Looked great. Not too simple, not too advanced. Lots to look forward to...

It was good...the lady struggled a few times, but it was hard to tell if it was her fault or just working out kinks in communication.
