[If TVG shows the race on TV they deserve a bigger cut, but let everyone bet on it]. However, I think that tangled web deserves an honest to goodness CPA and someone who is unbiased. Unfortunately, you're not gonna find to many regular fans, even TBA fans who have access to the contract information, if there's a link to it, let me know.Patrick J Pattenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10365169347148710377noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8711985.post-57100046971407206432008-04-21T11:11:00.000-04:002008-04-21T11:11:00.000-04:00Would be interested to know if the TBA has staked ...Would be interested to know if the TBA has staked out a position on signal access for ADWs? This issue appears to be coming to a head this Derby season, with horsemen demanding open access AND a bigger piece of the pie.<BR/><BR/>I know we got into this last year around this time quite a bit, but this might be the time to revisit. I know I'm quick to offer opinions, but I'd like to sit back and hear from the wisest crowd in racing for a while (track executives--I know you're reading...you are specifically NOT part of the wisest crowd in racing, but you can contribute too if you like).<BR/><BR/>Is there a chance that we won't be able to bet on the Derby online at all this year? Should the horsemen stand firm? Does anyone care about the customer?Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
