NYRA content no longer offered on TVG or FanDuel sportsbook
The Association will continue negotiations with FanDuel to increase funds flowing to the sport and its stakeholders in New York.
The New York Racing Association has announced that due to a contractual impasse between itself and FanDuel sportsbook, as well as the TVG network, all NYRA content will be eliminated from TVG channels and FanDuel wagering platforms effective immediately. Due to this decision, pari-mutuel wagering and live video from the ongoing Belmont at the Big A spring and summer meet are not currently available on TVG/FanDuel.
The NYRA stated its mission is to conduct world-class racing for the benefit of the state’s economy while growing the sport and creating opportunities for horsemen and breeders to compete for high purses throughout the year. In order to deliver on that promise, the Association plans to continue negotiations with TVG/FanDuel with the hopes of increasing funds flowing to the sport and its stakeholders in New York.
“NYRA provides the racing content that fuels the profits of out-of-state ADWs like TVG/FanDuel,” NYRA CRO Tony Allevato said.
“NYRA must prioritize the overall health of the sport and broader industry here in New York and we will continue negotiations to seek an equitable resolution so that our racing is widely available nationally.”
Najja Thompson, Executive Director of the New York Thoroughbred Breeders, also commented on the decision, having said, “NYRA is working to broaden the economic benefits flowing to New York’s horse racing industry, and our membership supports these efforts in every way.
“The funds generated by ADWs carrying NYRA support breeding farms throughout the state, and we stand shoulder to shoulder with NYRA.”
The Belmont at the Big A spring/summer meet continues through July 7 before live racing shifts for the summer meet at historic Saratoga Race Course. Wagering on the Belmont at the Big A spring/summer meet is available nationwide on Caesars Racebook, BetMGM and other deposit wagering platforms.
