At The Races

At The Races is a British television channel, originally co-founded with Channel 4, but now owned by a partnership between British Sky Broadcasting, Arena Leisure Plc and 27 (out of the 60) UK racecourses.

The station is focused on horse racing from the UK, Ireland, North America, France and (overnight) Australia, showing many live races and related shows. The station is a commercial station, running advert breaks, and is "affiliated" with various betting companies, since the channel's live picture feed is used by betting shops and gamblers are generally its main audience.

The channel was partly revamped in June 2006 and then again in June 2012. Up until June 2012, the channel ran from a main studio, and a production area called 'The Booth'. From June 27th 2012, ATR moved to new studios in Milton Keynes and 'the booth' was history.

Famous quotes containing the word races:

    Women are most fascinating between the ages of thirty-five and forty, after they have won a few races and know how to pace themselves. Since few women ever pass forty, maximum fascination can continue indefinitely.
    Christian Dior (1905–1957)
