I wish I could, but I would do alot of damage to my already less than stellar bankroll.

I would fall for this moreso than a cook. That says alot.

TVG is more into schtick and personalites.HRTV is better overall.

Spent about 2 weeks doing it and for the one time in my life, I could see myself becoming addicted to it. I have not even glanced at the channel since.

You really got to have both TVG and HRTV to be a true afficianado. Sure, you can just bet on what you receive, but sometimes the best tracks on on the different networks.

HRTV is, of course, the network for the Magna tracks, so right now, Gulfstream and Santa Anita, which could be argured are the top tracks currently meeting are on HRTV. Meanwhile, the NYRA tracks are exclusive with TVG.
Some of the tracks are carried by both. TVG shows some of its programming on the Fox regional sports channels, since they are owned by the same company.
TVG's presentation of the Los Alamitos signal, has proven a huge boost to the California quarterhorse racing industry.
An interesting development in California is that the Hollywood Park meets may soon be moving to Los Al because of the disaster that it has become in Inglewood.
