All three of the big Triple Crown races - the Kentucky Derby from Churchill Downs, the Belmont from Maryland, and the Belmont from here in New York City - are televised, along with the Breeders' Cup and many of the preliminary races on the under-card each of the big days. Nothing is more exciting than watching your horse battle it out down the stretch and win at odds that bettors on two-team sporting events can only dream about.
