Getting your player ready...
Sinatra is “king of the hill” again at the Belmont Stakes. The New York Racing Association is returning to Frank Sinatra’s classic version of “New York, New York” when the horses step onto the track for next Saturday’s $1 million race at Belmont Park. The decision comes a year after NYRA replaced Sinatra’s tune with the Jay-Z/Alicia Keys rendition of “Empire State of Mind.” The Belmont is expected to feature Kentucky Derby winner Animal Kingdom and Preakness winner Shackleford. And just before post time at 4:35 p.m. MDT, Sinatra’s voice will be back on “top of the heap.”
