An unprecedented 2020 horse racing calendar altered by the COVID-19 pandemic winds down in more familiar fashion on Nov. 6-7 at Keeneland Race Course with the 37^th Breeders’ Cup World Championships. The two-day event will be held with spectators limited to a few owners, breeders, and essential personnel, which will make the options for television, radio, and live streaming coverage even more important than usual for fans who want to watch and bet on the 14 races.

Fortunately, those options this year are more plentiful than ever. NBC Sports is, as usual, the go-to outlet for live broadcasts of all World Championships races. Friday’s five Breeders’ Cup races will be shown on NBCSN during a broadcast from 2 p.m.-6 p.m. ET. The first four of nine Breeders' Cup races on Saturday will be shown on NBCSN from noon-2:30 p.m. ET, and the final five will air on a national broadcast on NBC from 2:30 p.m.-6 p.m. ET, culminating with the Longines Breeders’ Cup Classic, which has a post time of 5:13 p.m. ET.
