Reserve The Third Race Call With Tom Durkin This Summer!

Reserve your spot to meet race announcer Tom Durkin at Saratoga Race Track.

SARATOGA SPRINGS NY — The Third Race Call with Tom Durkin is back again this year at the Saratoga Race Track.

You can meet race announcer Tom Durkin in person and watch the thoroughbreds race from the announcer's booth as he calls the third race on each day's card! This is a great opportunity to rub shoulders with this race track legend, be in the thick of the racing excitement, get a great view of the race track, take up to five of your friends along, and best of all... support a great cause!

Reservations are $100 per person, with 100% of the proceeds going to benefit New York’s Backstretch Employee Service Team (B.E.S.T.). B.E.S.T. is a non-profit organization that provides a wide range of health and other services to the backstretch workers at NYRA-run race tracks, including Saratoga, Belmont and Aqueduct.

Racing fans will also receive an embroidered Daily Racing Forum baseball cap and a souvenir photograph on the roof with Durkin. This special opportunity is limited to six fans daily, excluding Travers Day.

Make your reservations by contacting the B.E.S.T. office at 516-488-3434 or visit them online at www.bestbackstretch.org
