    Up for grabs? Do you seriously want that on RUK as well? ATR have done a great job with the Irish racing and in Gary O’Brien probably have the best presenter on either Channel.

    £20 per month to watch a stand alone channel with one sport wouldn’t be value for money for me.
    I personally like to listen to racing through internet radio. A bit like the old exchange telegraph but without the ‘rapid late headway’ :D

    While I agree that £20 a month is a bit steep for a stand alone channel, I like watching Racing (I’m not a big punter) and would rather spend it on this then spend £40ish a month on Sky Sports as I’m not interested in Football, Golf and most of the other sports covered by them.

    As regards Ascot switching sides I’m not suprised and wouldn’t suprise me a couple more independents follow in the next couple of years.

    Presuming the existing broadcasters remain financially viable of course.
