The horse racing spotlight shines on New Orleans this upcoming weekend, as Fair Grounds hosts a stakes-rich card Saturday, Jan. 17, anchored by the Lecomte Stakes.

Five other stakes races are scheduled on the Lecomte undercard including the Fasig-Tipton Silverbulletday Stakes, a points prep for the Longines Kentucky Oaks.
Action from Fair Grounds will be broadcast live on FanDuel TV as part of their comprehensive daily package that also includes racing from Santa Anita Park, Gulfstream Park, Turfway Park, and other tracks.
