After an action-packed weekend dominated by the Pegasus World Cup Invitational Stakes Presented by Baccarat and undercard races at Gulfstream Park, the focus this upcoming Saturday shifts to the prep schedule for the 2023 Kentucky Derby Presented by Woodford Reserve. Two races offering qualifying points are on tap: the Holy Bull Stakes at Gulfstream and the Robert B. Lewis Stakes at Santa Anita Park. The Withers Stakes at Aqueduct, another points race, has been postponed after racing at the Aqueduct was cancelled Feb. 3-4 due to weather.

Both the Holy Bull Stakes and the Robert B. Lewis Stakes will be televised live during a two-hour broadcast on CNBC and Peacock, starting at 4 p.m. ET. The broadcast will include three other stakes races from Gulfstream Park and Santa Anita Park.

Racing from Gulfstream and Santa Anita will also be shown live on FanDuel TV, along with coverage of other tracks including Turfway Park and Golden Gate Fields.

NYRA’s “America’s Day at the Races” will broadcast races from Aqueduct's Sunday card as well as races from Oaklawn Park and Tampa Bay Downs from Friday-Sunday. The program will be shown on FS2 and FS1 – check the schedule below for air times.

Horse racing from tracks around the world is available to subscribers on Racetrack Television Network (RTN), which can be livestreamed on all devices (computer, tablet and smartphone) and on TV via DISH Network, Amazon Fire and Roku.
