The Saudi Cup will be televised live on a special broadcast of “America’s Day at the Races” from 8 a.m. to 1 p.m. ET on FS2. Other races on the Saudi Cup card from Abdulaziz Racecourse in Riyadh will also be shown during the four-hour program.

The Rebel Stakes will be featured on a Saturday afternoon broadcast of “America’s Day at the Races” along with other races from Oaklawn Park and Aqueduct. The NYRA-produced show runs each afternoon from Friday, Feb. 23 to Sunday, Feb. 25 on the Fox Sports network – check the below schedule for channels and air times.

Oaklawn’s Rebel Stakes will also be shown live on FanDuel TV along with racing from tracks such as Gulfstream Park, Santa Anita Park, Turfway Park, and Laurel Park as part of that channel’s daily package.
