The New York Racing Association, FOX Sports Prime Ticket and FOX Sports San Diego have reached an agreement to broadcast “Saratoga Live” throughout the 2017 meet. Prime ticket will air all 40 scheduled shows, while San Diego will air 30 episodes.
“Fox Sports Prime Ticket and Fox Sports San Diego have long served as the Southern California home of thoroughbred racing,” said Tony Allevato, President of NYRA Bets and Executive Producer for NYRA TV. “That's why NYRA is so pleased to partner with them to greatly expand the reach of NYRA's acclaimed live shows, and provide fans with daily coverage of the best racing in the country from historic Saratoga Race Course.”
Prime Ticket will also air seven shows from the Belmont meet, starting with live coverage of the GIII Pennine Ridge S. June 3. San Diego will air three editions of “Belmont Park Live”, starting June 24.
“We are very excited to deliver NYRA programming to horseracing fans across the Southern California market,” said Henry Ford, senior vice president and general manager, Prime Ticket, FOX Sports San Diego and FOX Sports West. “Both 'Saratoga Live' and 'Belmont Park Live' will be fantastic complements to our professional sports coverage this summer.”
