Big congrats Steve! Wish you best of luck. I generally just listen on-line, but this will be the motivation to get Sirius installed in the car.

Looking forward to you at the helm.

Congrats Steve!

I like the name change too. Removal of the "And Beyond" gives it a cleaner sleeker sound.

Steve,

What can I say..just a wonderful job with the show. It's amazing what has been accomplished in such a short time. It makes the possibilities in the future limitless.

The content of the show and the insight from the broad host of guests has made my love for the sport even greater. I have learned so much and I guess that's the reason we all cherish this sport. Unlike any other, there's always so much to learn.

And then there's Sumwon and that whole story.

You have taken, as I've said before, horse racing + internet/Sirius = the absolute greatest, dynamic, and most of all satisfying relationship between people and the sport.

As said, it boggles the mind to see what you'll do in the future.

All the best,

Spyder and hope to see you next Saturday

DG, Roger, Bigs, Pat, Zig, Dunbar...

Thanks very much for the support and encouragement... Am constantly trying to add elements that listeners will appreciate and bring value to their Sirius subscription...

This past week was able to secure the outstanding Matt Hegarty (DRF) as correspondent for all things business-related in the industry. He appeared twice to explain the Penn National and BRIS/AmericaTab buyouts as well as the Curlin partners' indictments...

Also expect to do more 3 hour 'specialty' topic shows like the "Mutuel Interests" and "Breeders" specials. In recent weeks, have also brought Graham Motion, David Fawkes, Neil Drysdale, Jonathon Sheppard and Alan Goldberg to the air for the first time...

Anything anyone can do to encourage fellow race fans to tune in is greatly appreciated, and new subscriptions to Sirius would obviously be the greatest help. And please feel free to add suggestions for anything you would like to hear on the show...

Steve,

Have been a subsrciber for quite some time. Best of Luck with the show. Will call in more often now and hopefully ask you some tough questions.

Best of Luck to you and the new show format.

How do youplan to handle the show from the SPA? can you get a live feed there?

NC Tony
