America’s Day at the Races, the acclaimed national television show produced by the New York Racing Association, Inc. (NYRA) in conjunction with FOX Sports, will present live coverage of the Breeders Crown on Friday and Saturday from Woodbine Mohawk Park in Campbellville, Ontario.
The $7 million Breeders Crown, harness racing’s richest and most prestigious year-end divisional championship series, will air Friday on FS2 beginning at 9 p.m. with coverage to continue on Saturday beginning at 7:30 p.m.
Jessica Otten will anchor the Friday broadcast from Woodbine Mohawk Park, which will include four 2-year-old Breeders Crown events. Acacia Clement and Anthony Stabile will provide additional reporting and analysis from Aqueduct Racetrack.
On Saturday, Breeders Crown coverage will begin at 7:30 p.m., and include eight Breeders Crown contests. The broadcast will kick off with the $350,000 Mare Trot, which will be triple millionairess Atlanta’s final attempt at a Breeders Crown before retirement and wrap up with the sport’s fastest racehorse, Bulldog Hanover, whose 1:45.4 mile this summer stunned the harness world.
The Breeders Crown is a year-end championship series of races for trotters and pacers, divided by the traditional categories of age, gender and gait—showcasing the stars of the Standardbred sport. A Crown title is a conclusive factor in Horse of the Year and all divisional Dan Patch balloting.
“We had a great opportunity in 2021 when the Breeders Crown events were raced in the daytime at The Meadowlands to participate in the relationship The Meadowlands started with NYRA and FOX Sports,” said John Campbell, president and CEO of the Hambletonian Society which owns and administers the Breeders Crown.
“There is more and more crossover wagering and interest between the two breeds and we are eager to continue that. We greatly appreciate the support of Woodbine Mohawk Park and COSA in continuing the tradition of live TV that Breeders Crown has enjoyed over the 39 years of the series."

In the eyes of Hall of Fame owner and breeder John Hettinger, there was no greater importance in the breeding and campaigning of racehorses than ensuring them with a proper and lifelong retirement once their racing careers came to a close.
