TVG will have complete live, on-track coverage of the Keeneland meet beginning Friday, as well as start two new weekly features as part of a new partnership with Al Basti Equiworld, Dubai, one of the world's leading equine feed and supplement suppliers, the network announced today.
Racing fans can watch TVG's coverage of the Keeneland spring meet and the build up toward the Triple Crown in high definition on DIRECTV's new OTT (over-the-top) service, DIRECTV NOW. In addition, TVG is available on AT&T's U-Verse in HD and at www.tvg.com/live.
Todd Schrupp, Paul Lo Duca, Caleb Keller and Caton Bredar will all be on-site as TVG broadcasts live from Keeneland for every day of the prestigious three-week spring meet. TVG and TVG2 will air Saturday's and Sunday's “The Starting Gate” program live from Keeneland as well. On dark days, the TVG crew will visit Lexington-area farms to create features and segments to help promote the Thoroughbred breeding and sales industry.
In an effort to recognize some of Thoroughbred racing's behind-the-scenes players, TVG, in partnership with Al Basti Equiworld, Dubai will launch two new weekly features on TVG and TVG2, the Performance of the Week and the Best Turned Out.
“It's always great to be back at Keeneland and we are very excited that DIRECTV NOW is carrying TVG on its new over-the-top platform,” said Kip Levin, TVG's CEO. “And, as we look more at ways we can highlight the hard work behind getting horses ready to race, we're pleased to introduce these two new weekly features, courtesy of our friends at Al Basti Equiworld, Dubai.”
