Excerpt:
On Friday, July 20, arguably the highest-quality racing on the North American calendar will begin when the first-post starting gate opens for Saratoga Race Course’s 2018 meet, which runs for 40 days and also closes on Labor Day. Saratoga’s meet features 69 stakes races, led by the “Mid-Summer Derby,” the $1.25 million Travers Stakes on Aug. 25. Saratoga will card four graded stakes during its first two days of racing – the Grade 3 Lake George Stakes and Grade 3 Schuylerville Stakes on July 20 and the Grade 1 Diana Stakes and Grade 3 Sanford Stakes on July 21.
Both tracks will run key Breeders’ Cup Challenge Series “Win and You’re In” qualifying races during their respective meets, and NBC Sports has several "Win and You're In" Series presented by America's Best Racing broadcasts scheduled along the way, beginning on Aug. 4 at Saratoga for the $1.2 million Whitney Stakes.
In addition to the NBC telecasts, both tracks will offer comprehensive television coverage available in many markets. At Saratoga, "Saratoga Live," NYRA's flagship show presented by Claiborne Farm, will be available in 75 million households nationally through Fox Sports 2 and regionally through MSG+, Fox Sports Prime Ticket, Fox Sports San Diego, Fox Sports Ohio and the Altitude Sports Network.
Beginning on July 21, “Saratoga Live” will be broadcast nearly every day of the meet, which runs from Wednesday to Monday, from 4 p.m. to 6:30 p.m. ET. The show features a broadcast team that includes host Greg Wolf, handicapper Andy Serling, analysts Paul Lo Duca and Gabby Gaudet, paddock analyst Maggie Wolfendale, and trainer Tom Amoss.
