HALLANDALE BEACH, Fla. (Jan. 25, 2017) — NBC will provide live coverage of Saturday’s $12 million Pegasus World Cup, beginning at 1:30 p.m. PT and featuring the Breeders’ Cup Classic rematch between California Chrome and Arrogate.
Mike Tirico hosts the show, alongside Hall-of-Fame jockey and analyst Jerry Bailey; analyst Randy Moss; analyst/handicapper Eddie Olczyk; host/reporter Laffit Pincay, III; and reporter Donna Brothers. E! News’ Maria Menounos joins the telecast as a co-host, covering the pageantry, celebrities, and fashion at the event.
Coverage will include a feature on California Chrome, who was bred for just $10,500 and has won more than $14 million on the racetrack. If he wins the Pegasus World Cup Invitational, he will have more career earnings than any horse in the history of worldwide thoroughbred racing.
