Horse racing on btsport

Hey everyone I've been looking at the bt sports schedule, I can see motogp, wwe, football, American football but no horse racing

I can't believe bt sport don't show any horse riding it's one of the biggest sports out there

It would be brilliant to see some horse racing on bt sports from UK and overseas in USA and Australia

I know you can get racing TV and sky sports racing but it would be better to get just one package with bt to watch it

Many thanks

Ann

As far as I'm aware BT don't currently hold any broadcast rights for horse racing. The main rights holders are ITV, Sky and Racing TV.

I guess that BT Sport don't see commercial value in it, whereas Racing TV is owned by 34 Racecourses who own race courses and Sky own Sky Bet so they also have a vested interest and ITV cater for those who don't have subscription TV but would like to watch some meetings.
