I have no idea?
I would say that Tellytrack have done more to damage punters/racing than any opposition forces could have dreamt and I am sure they are in a position to throw switches when they choose and not blame 3rd parties :(
One thing you can be assured is pictures from Ngong

Maybe they think that Royal Ascot is only on Saturday (well you never know hey) just like the July and the Met are one day meetings

They only put it on when it suites themself. I just wish that they would stop putting the scroll at the bottom of the screen of the racing that is not being televised on TT. Its a big F You to us punters

It's been shown on Racing International, so you can sit in a stinking tote and watch

Really don't know the logic

Pawns in the battle...

I repeat that it is more profitable for the operators NOT to have a local meeting as there are costs associated with putting on the show that they will not have when they merely act as tote facilitators for international racing...can take % out of pool (albeit smaller than for local racing) without associated costs with resultant higher margins, increase in bottom line, share price, bonuses and perks, etc...

They no longer can rely on surviving with the Takeout on International Racing - Just take a look at the pools for HK yesterday (see thread Muthi Man) - The International Pools are still down and I doubt if they will recover unless punters can see the Racing - I still think that the clever people that thought up this plan will be responsible for major damage in years to come

Don't even have that "luxury". Most totes that co habitat with bookies, have had the international feed cut off

Could it be that this week there are no Zebras involved.

Just had it confirmed no pics until Saturday

Wonder if that had been the case with different owners of today's runners?

Mike de Kock must be thrilled .All his efforts to put our racing on the world stage and SA can't see his 2 runners at Ascot

(All due to a whole bunch of people, promoted way above their level of competence, at Phumulela!)
