This is shaping up to be a very intriguing race at Belmont Park. First, you have the return of Kentucky Derby winner Sovereignty, who purposely skipped the Preakness Stakes in order to “better prepare” for the Belmont Stakes. Though he has been out of the action, Sovereignty still is one of the favorites to win the race.
The race is scheduled to start at 6:30 p.m. EDT and will be broadcast on FOX. Fans looking to watch can do so for free by using DirecTV, which offers a free trial, or FuboTV, which also offers a free trial as well as up to $25 off your first month. SlingTV doesn’t offer a free trial but has promotional offers available for streaming the race.

The final leg of the horse-racing Triple Crown takes place on Saturday. There is no anticipation of a Triple Crown, as that dream died once Kentucky Derby winner Sovereignty was held out of the Preakness. In addition, the race will take place in upstate New York rather than Belmont Park on Long Island.
