Victorian racing will be available to 90 per cent of TV viewers after PRIME7 announced it will commence free-to-air coverage in regional areas.

The PRIME7 coverage on channel 68 in regional areas of Victoria, New South Wales, Western Australia, the ACT and Gold Coast joined Seven West Media's free-to-air metropolitan area coverage on Channel 78 that began last month.

The Pakenham meeting on Tuesday is the first to be broadcast to the extended audience.

Racing Victoria CEO Bernard Saundry said discussions between Seven West Media and its affiliates in Tasmania, the Northern Territory and regional South Australia were still ongoing.

"I want to thank both PRIME7 and Seven West Media for their support of our regional viewers who are vital to the success and growth of our industry," Saundry said.

"Likewise, I want to thank regional punters, fans and participants who have been extremely patient over the past month where they've had restricted access to vision of Victorian racing."

Negotiations continue between Seven West Media and Foxtel around extending Channel 78's free-to-air coverage to the pay-TV platform.

Discussions between Racing Victoria and Tabcorp continue on a daily basis over the return of Victorian racing to Sky Racing's wall-to-wall channels.

Victorian racing can still be viewed on computers, tablets and mobiles via racing.com, sportsbet.com.au and crownbet.com.au and also in 92 retail TAB outlets in Victoria.
