Horse racing coverage on TV, streaming services, and radio expands to an international setting this week, as the main focus of fans and horseplayers in several countries will be directed at the prestigious Royal Ascot meet in England.
Held at Ascot Racecourse, the five-day Royal Ascot meet features some of the best turf Thoroughbreds in the world in competition – including a handful of U.S.-based runners – highlighted by eight Group 1 stakes. Four of those stakes are “Win and You’re In” qualifying races for the 2023 Breeders’ Cup World Championships set for Nov. 3-4 at Santa Anita Park.
