The 43rd Breeders’ Cup World Championships is less than three weeks away, and contenders for the event’s 14 races are finalizing travel plans to Keeneland Race Course for Oct. 30-31. Meanwhile, fall race meets at Keeneland, Belmont Park, and other tracks are ongoing, and a premier steeplechase event, the Far Hills Race Meeting in New Jersey, is set for Saturday, Oct. 17.

America’s Best Racing will be on-site at the Far Hills meeting and also hosts a preview livestream show on Wednesday, Oct. 14 at 7 p.m. ET, with a repeat on Friday, Oct. 16 at 8 p.m. ET. The “Far Hills Race Meet Preview Show” will be hosted by ABR’s Alexa Zepp along with Joe Clancy and Blake Sims and feature special guests that will offer insights on the racecard and what’s new for fans attending this year. The “Far Hills Race Meet Preview Show” streams on ABR’s Facebook, X, and YouTube channels and also on Far Hills’ Facebook channel, and it will also stream on Equibase’s homepage.

In addition to our coverage, Saturday’s races at Far Hills will be broadcast on NYRA’s “America’s Day at the Races” television program along with their usual coverage of Belmont Park. “America’s Day at the Races” runs from Wednesday through Sunday, Oct. 17, this week on FOX Sports and will also include a Saturday morning show covering British Champions Day at Ascot Racecourse in London – check the schedule below for channels and times.

Live racing at Keeneland will be broadcast on FanDuel TV this week along with the network’s coverage of tracks including Santa Anita Park, Gulfstream Park, Laurel Park, and Woodbine.

The popular “Today at Keeneland” preview show is underway and will air each day of live racing through the end of Keeneland’s regular meet Oct. 24. Hosted by Gabby Gaudet and Scott Hazelton, “Today at Keeneland” starts at 11:30 a.m. ET and airs locally on the CW Lexington while also streaming on Keeneland’s website, YouTube channel, WKYT.com, and several other outlets.

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.
