Saturday’s racing will take place on FS2 and can be viewed live on FS2. Sling TV (discount) or DirectTV Stream (FREE trial and discount).

The series was initiated by the Hambletonian Society, organizers of the Hambletonian Stakes, in 1984 with the aim of developing the Standardbred breeding industry and promoting the sport of harness racing by staging lucrative high-profile championship races in each of these categories.

These races are advertised as year-end championships for each division with the slogan “it’s all about the Breeders’ Crown”.
