America’s Day at the Races returns this week on FOX Sports and MSG Networks to provide coverage and analysis of racing from Belmont Park, Churchill Downs and Delaware Park, the New York Racing Association announced Wednesday.
After a summer hiatus, the show resumes Thursday with live racing from Churchill Downs and Delaware Park, before transitioning Friday-opening day of the 27-day Belmont Park fall meet–for complete coverage of this weekend’s live racing from Belmont Park and Churchill Downs.
Produced by NYRA in partnership with FOX Sports, the acclaimed national telecast airs Thursday through Sunday on FOX Sports (FS1/FS2) and MSG+, beginning each day at 12:30 p.m., Eastern. With the addition of a show Wednesday, Sept. 23, America’s Day at the Races will air live coverage of every race day this fall at both Belmont Park and Churchill Downs.
Featured this weekend will be stakes action from Belmont Park, starting on Friday with the inaugural running of the $80,000 Miner’s Mark S. for 3-year-olds and up going 1 1/2 miles on the dirt. Saturday’s broadcast is highlighted by the first Grade I race of the Belmont fall meet, the $250,000 Belmont Oaks Invitational for 3-year-old fillies going 1 1/4 miles on the turf.
