Summer racing is officially in full swing now that Del Mar has opened on the West Coast to join Saratoga Race Course back East, and the upcoming weekend is filled with top-quality action at those two venues and elsewhere. One Breeders’ Cup “Win and You’re In” race is set for this weekend, as Del Mar hosts the Bing Crosby Stakes Saturday, July 27. That six-furlong dash is an automatic qualifier for the Breeders’ Cup Sprint, which will be held back at Del Mar on Nov. 2.

At Saratoga, some of the best 3-year-olds will square off in the Jim Dandy Stakes Presented by Mohegan Sun on Saturday, including Kentucky Derby Presented by Woodford Reserve runner-up Sierra Leone. The Jim Dandy is the local prep for the DraftKings Travers Stakes Aug. 24 at the Spa.

Racing from Del Mar is showcased on FanDuel TV throughout its summer meet, and the network will also show live races from tracks including Gulfstream Park, Ellis Park, and Woodbine as per its normal daily schedule.

NYRA’s “Saratoga Live” provides comprehensive coverage of racing at the Spa from Wednesday, July 24, through Sunday, July 28, airing on FOX Sports. On Saturday, a three-hour show is slated to be broadcast nationwide on FOX from 3 p.m. to 6 p.m. ET. “Saratoga Live” airs on FS2 the rest of the week – check the below schedule 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.

America’s Best Racing is your source for must-watch livestreaming content on Saturday as it hosts a show on-site from Saratoga. Hosted by Dan Tordjman and Alexa Zepp, “The Saratoga Show Livestream” features guest appearances by members of Bookit Sports and has a tentative start time of 3:30 p.m. ET. It airs on ABR’s Facebook, X, and YouTube channels.
