Off to the Races Radio, powered by The Racing Biz returned October 12 at 10:00 a.m. The radio show, which is presented by the Virginia Equine Alliance, returns for its 26th season.
The program combines tips and advice on betting horse racing, news from the sport, and interviews and conversations with major racing newsmakers. After running two-hour weekly episode during the Colonial Downs meet, the program has resumed its one-hour format.
On October 12 hosts Nick Hahn and Frank Vespe were joined by a bevy of guests. Those included handicappers John Piassek and Ted Black, Darrell Wood and more.
The program focuses on Thoroughbred racing and breeding in Virginia, around the Mid-Atlantic, and across the country and will air each Saturday at 10:00 a.m. Eastern on ESPN Richmond (106.1 FM) and via livestreaming. The show airs simultaneously on ESPN Harrisonburg (106.9 FM and 1360 AM). And during the summer race meet at Colonial Downs, the program will expand to two hours.
The show will run through November 2.
