    The Virgin Media Player should have it. It's not fantastic qualitywise but it should do the job for the Free to Air races.

    I have a TOTE account and can watch it on that online. I usually do as small a Placepot as possible and get to watch the 6 races. Any more, I just do a €1 win and watch that way.
    However, you can’t beat actually being there! Can’t wait for 2022!

    Pop down your local pub to watch it.

    "if you get on the wrong train, get off at the nearest station, the longer it takes you to get off, the more expensive the return trip will be."

    Grand for watching, but for anybody punting in running no good. The exchange rtv feed less than half second behind on a good day.

    ITV racing is about 5 to 8 seconds behind SIS, based on a few saturday comparisons

    You don't need to place a bet on Tote to watch the live streams. You just need to have an account. They cover all British and Irish racing and many abroad also.

    It's on a different satellite

    You need a motorised dish or dish moving and then appropriate equipment
