My wife can't have it in the house
I used to have an old 12 in one just for myself to watch the news but now it's all digital I can't be bothered.

My interest in horse racing is purely mercenary, only interested in winning.
If there were decent car or mbike races every day, I wouldn't do horses at all.
God knows I mucked out enough stables when a boy on our farm in the old country, had enough of the filthy animals for a lifetime.

Cheers

The fact you have a PC would be good enough to watch it if you have all the resources to download it, if you have any other questions e-mail me.

Did you hear they cancelled the series after 3 horses were killed.

It was cancelled after the 2nd episode of the 2nd series.

From wikipedia:

The safety of the series' working environment was called into question by People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals (PETA), which criticized Luck over the injury and euthanization of two horses during filming for the pilot and the seventh episode. The American Humane Association (AHA) said both racehorses "stumbled and fell during short racing sequences" and that "the horses were checked immediately afterwards by the onsite veterinarians and in each case a severe fracture deemed the condition inoperable." HBO pointed out that precautions had been taken: Each horse was "limited to three runs per day and was rested in between those runs."[7][8] On March 13, 2012, HBO agreed to suspend all filming involving horses while investigations took place over the death of a third horse.[9] The AHA insisted the stoppage remain in effect until a comprehensive investigation was completed; it also noted the horse's injury did not occur during filming or racing.[10] The following day, HBO canceled the series, saying that while it "maintained the highest safety standards throughout production ... accidents unfortunately happen and it is impossible to guarantee they won’t in the future."[
