The summer racing season will go through Labor Day.

You can enjoy live racing at the track on Wednesdays through Sundays throughout the summer.

Fans can look forward to popular events such as the Whitney Stakes and Travers Stakes taking place in August.

The Belmont Stakes was moved to Saratoga Race Course last month, since Belmont Park in Long Island is undergoing renovations. The four-day racing festival was marked as a success, bringing in more than 120,000 people to the racetrack and tens of thousands more to the Saratoga area.

NewsChannel 13 will be live at the track with team coverage for opening day of the regular season.
