Tomorrow\u2019s Devonport Cup meeting (7 January) will be broadcast live on Racing.com, which is available on Free To Air (FTA), Foxtel, Kayo and streaming platforms.<\/p>\n
It is the first time that Tasmanian racing will be broadcast live on FTA since 2012.<\/p>\n
Tasracing CEO Andrew Jenkins said he appreciated the flexibility demonstrated by long-term, principal broadcast partner, Sky Channel, to enable Tasmanian racing to be broadcast on FTA.<\/p>\n
\u201cOur new media rights deal with Sky, which started on 1 January 2026, has an FTA allowance for 10 Tasmanian thoroughbred meetings each year to be broadcast live,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n
\u201cThe Devonport Cup meeting will also benefit from full coverage of every race as the South Australian and Victorian race meetings have been moved due to forecast hot temperatures.\u201d<\/p>\n
Mr Jenkins said it was likely that two other feature race days that formed part of the current Ladbrokes Tasmanian Summer Racing Festival would be broadcast on Racing.com.<\/p>\n
The broadcast will be headed up by Matt Reid and Colin McNiff, including pre and post-race coverage.<\/p>\n
Devonport Cup day has 10 races, the first scheduled for 12.30pm and the last at 5.42pm.<\/p>\n
The Ladbrokes Devonport Cup is race nine at 5.07pm.<\/p>\n
Tasmanian multiple Group 1-winning jockey Craig Newitt will be aiming to win his 10th Devonport Cup riding the Barry Campbell-trained Earendel.<\/p>\n
