Television Coverage

On the 1 September 2016, seven independent racecourse (Fakenham, Ffos Las, Hexham, Newton Abbot, Plumpton, Ripon and Towcester) lead by ARC (Arena Racing Company) and started a television service known as The Racing Partnership ("TRP"). Racing from the six Arena courses including Doncaster, Southwell, Lingfield Park and Wolverhampton became available on TRP from 1 January 2017 with all other ARC and independent racecourses being added to the schedule over the following year. This service is a competitor to Sports Information Services (SIS) who since 1987 has been providing racecourse coverage into the LBO's.

Since the launch of the service a number of leading high street bookmakers have chosen not to take the TRP service, and instead provide their own 'off tube' commentary.
