Where to Watch/Listen: Horse Racing and Sales Coverage Nov. 3-9
Events / Travel
Another Breeders’ Cup is in the books, but the Thoroughbred calendar never really lets down and this upcoming week is highlighted by a quick turnaround as NYRA and FOX Sports bring North Americans coverage of Australia’s signature race and America’s Best Racing presents an on-site livestream of one of the year’s most anticipated horse auctions – both on Monday, Nov. 3.

After a successful livestream last summer at Fasig-Tipton’s Saratoga select yearling sale, America’s Best Racing is back with another action-packed show Monday. ABR presents “Night of the Stars! Live Show” on-site from Fasig-Tipton’s auction house in Lexington, Ky., where many talented horses including broodmare prospects straight from the Breeders’ Cup will go through the ring.
“Night of the Stars! Live Show” is sponsored by Haygard Equine Medical Institute. The show starts at 6 p.m. ET and will be hosted by Dan Tordjman, Rachel Miller, and Ren Carothers with roving reporting from Alexa Zepp and plenty of special guests throughout the night. It will stream on ABR’s Facebook, X, Instagram, and YouTube channels.
During ABR’s Fasig-Tipton livestream, Matt Desantis from NYRA will make a guest appearance discussing “the race that stops the nation,” Australia’s Melbourne Cup, which will air live on FS2 as a special broadcast later Monday evening from 9:30 p.m.-11:30 p.m.
NYRA’s “America’s Day at the Races” runs from Thursday, Nov. 6, through Sunday, Nov. 9 with action from Belmont at the Big A. The show airs on FOX Sports – check the below schedule for channels and times.
After broadcasting every Breeders’ Cup race from Del Mar, FanDuel TV continues with comprehensive coverage of the Bing Crosby meet at the southern California track. FanDuel TV’s daily schedule also includes races from Churchill Downs, Gulfstream Park, and Woodbine.
Horse racing from tracks around the world is available to subscribers on Racetrack Television Network (RTN), which can be livestreamed on all devices (computer, tablet and smartphone) and on TV via DISH Network, Amazon Fire and Roku.
