Television Games Network reached an agreement Friday with the New York Racing Association on a two-year television and account-wagering contract.
The contract, which will allow TVG to broadcast and accept wagers on races at Aqueduct, Belmont Park, and Saratoga Race Course, was approved by the New York Racing and Wagering Board.
NYRA racing will return to TVG programming on Saturday.
“Our customers will continue to enjoy racing action from Aqueduct, Belmont, and Saratoga for a number of years,” TVG President David Nathanson said. “We expect regulatory approval shortly, which will enable us to make Aqueduct races available for television and wagering purposes.”
Friday’s agreement came one day after NYRA President Charles Hayward said they were unable to reach a simulcast agreement for 2009 with TVG.
