A berth in the FanDuel Breeders' Cup Mile (G1) will be on the line on Monday at Santa Anita in the $500,000 Shoemaker Mile (G1), one of three Grade 1 races on the Memorial Day card. FanDuel TV will be live from Santa Anita to kick off the first of 41 Challenge Series races in North America leading up to the 2023 Breeders' Cup which will be held November 3-4 at Santa Anita.
FanDuel TV's Todd Schrupp, Joaquin Jaime, Christina Blacker, Scott Hazelton, Britney Eurton and Andie Biancone will be reporting live from Santa Anita with exclusive interviews, insights and expert analysis throughout the holiday weekend.
