TVG2 (formerly HRTV) is an American sports-oriented digital cable and satellite television network that is owned by Betfair Group plc. Dedicated to horse racing, it broadcasts events from U.S. and international racetracks, as well as a range of English and Western horse competitions, news, original programming and documentaries

The network was previously known as HRTV, and owned by the Stronach Group. In February 2015, HRTV was acquired by Betfair, owner of the competing TVG Network. HRTV was consolidated into TVG Network's Los Angeles facilities, and re-branded as TVG2 on October 28, 2015. The move to TVG's facilities also allowed the network to begin broadcasting in high definition.^[1]^[2]^[3]
