A one-hour show, the HRTV 2013 Winter Preview Show, will open the block at Noon ET and prepare racing fans for outstanding coast-to-coast racing for the winter season. Network hosts will take fans through stakes schedules from top-flight racetracks, including Santa Anita Park, Gulfstream, Fair Grounds, Oaklawn, Aqueduct and Golden Gate.
Additionally, viewers will get an early sneak peak at the 3-year-old picture, and the recently-instituted points system, which will determine the Kentucky Derby field.
Immediately following, HRTV will unveil Pursuit of the 2012 Eclipse Awards at 1 p.m. ET. Laffit Pincay, Gary Stevens, Jeff Siegel, Richard Migliore, and others, will discuss the probable nominees for the "Horse of the Year," as well as look at many contentious battles for divisional honors.

HRTV Reaches 50K Fans on Facebook
HRTV's Facebook page has grown at a rapid rate in less than two years, and it recently reached a significant milestone -- 50,000 fans.
The meteoric rise of fans to HRTV's page has evolved quickly. The network only had 2,300 fans in March, 2011, but has grown exponentially since. Last month alone, the network saw a burgeoning growth, with 20,000 fans added.
The substantial addition of fans is attributed to the previously unfilled void of information on a vast array of horse sports -- horseracing, as well as equestrian (English and Western), and more. HRTV's wide-ranging dissemination of content gives horse fans the opportunity to interact with others that share the same passion.
