Three qualifying points races for the Kentucky Derby Presented by Woodford Reserve are on the North American racing schedule for the upcoming weekend, all held on Saturday, Feb. 10. The rescheduled Withers Stakes will be held at Aqueduct, while in west-central Florida, the Sam F. Davis Stakes will run at Tampa Bay Downs. And in the Bay Area, Golden Gate Fields holds its sole Kentucky Derby points race, the El Camino Real Derby.

Both the Sam F. Davis Stakes and the Withers Stakes will be broadcast on NYRA’s “America’s Day at the Races” along with other races from Tampa Bay Downs and Aqueduct and races at Oaklawn Park. The program will be shown on FS2 and FS1 – check the schedule below for air times.

The El Camino Real Derby will be shown live on FanDuel TV, along with action from Gulfstream Park, Santa Anita Park, Turfway Park, Fair Grounds, and many other tracks (including Tampa Bay Downs and Aqueduct).

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.
