TV2 ousts NRK in horse racing deal

Norwegian basic-tier and commercial broadcaster TV2 acquired rights for domestic harness racing, a form of horse racing, in a deal with Norsk Ristoto, the company which has the concession to handle all horse racing betting in Norway.

TV2 will take over coverage from public-service broadcaster NRK in April, broadcasting across its free-to-air and pay-television channels, TV2, TV Sport, TV2 Zebra and TV 2 Sumo.
