The $500,000 Champagne Stakes is one of New York’s most prestigious races for 2-year-olds and has been for over a century. The one-turn mile race will be held again this year at Aqueduct, substituting for under-construction Belmont Park, as part of the Belmont at the Big A meet.

Fall racing returns to Keeneland Race Course as the annual October season opens for its 17-raceday meet running from Friday, Oct. 3 to Saturday, Oct. 25.  Keeneland will attract big fields and quality horses offering something for ever kind of horseplayer including top 2-year-old racing, great turf racing, and top-rung competition at all levels, and good-value wagering coming from the heart of bluegrass country in Lexington, Ky.

Every Sunday Noel Michaels will provide free full-card picks for a one racecard in North America. A veteran handicapper and tournament-play pioneer, Michaels also writes a weekly “Weekend Winners” blog for America’s Best Racing with a focus on key stakes races at marquee tracks. This feature will be straight-forward: full-card picks for one Sunday slate of races of his choosing.

For the ninth year in a row, America’s Best Racing is challenging some of the brightest minds in horse betting to come up with their top three picks for key races every weekend leading up to the 2025 Triple Crown and then continuing through the 2025 Breeders’ Cup World Championships. The handicappers face off in what we like to call the “Big-Race Showdown.”
