SIRIUS has announced that it has added thoroughbred horse racing to its "deep stable" (ho ho!) of live sports programming.
SIRIUS will feature a weekly two-hour talk show devoted to the "Sport of Kings," titled Down The Stretch, with track announcer Dave Johnson serving as host, and analysts Bill Finley and Jay Privman.
Down The Stretch will air every Saturday morning from 10am to Noon EST on SIRIUS Sports Action channel 123. On certain special Saturdays, SIRIUS will also air a Race Of The Week featuring live coverage of the biggest race of that day from around the country.
I guess there's a market for this? Seems like we're just covering all the sports we can. What's next, Poker?
I'm one of those who will buy into Sirius because of the horse racing additions if Sirius will send me an e-mail and tell me how to do so. Nothing as beautiful as thoroughbreds racing! And if I can't see it, I'd like to listen.
I think it is absolutely AWESOME!!
