Free Racing on Sky...

SUNDAY BEST FOR RACING UK

Satellite viewers will be able to watch Racing UK for free over the next three Sundays, enabling non-subscribers to enjoy the pay-to-view channel.


The 'Sunday Specials' offer kicks off this weekend with action from Newbury and Doncaster, and will be followed by racing from Warwick and Musselburgh over the following two weeks.


"Limited free-to-view periods are available to us under our agreement with BSkyB, and by amalgamating them as we did for our coverage of the Breeders' Cup last month, we can offer those who have not yet subscribed the opportunity to sample a full-length broadcast on a day of the week when most people can spare time to take in some sporting action," said the channel's executive chairman Simon Bazalgette."

Setanta (owners of RUK) sent me a 10 quid refund yesterday because they had difficulties in signing up everybody before the off. Generous I suppose considering it's usually a hassle getting anything back from these people.

A bit like offers to new customers at half the price I'm paying - noe that hurts!

Good luck...
