Racing will get added national exposure this week in an episode of CNBC’s “Secret Lives of the Super Rich.” In its season two finale, Wednesday at 9 p.m. Eastern, the series visits Fasig-Tipton’s Saratoga Sale to look behind the scenes of a premier Thoroughbred auction, as well as the luxury and extravagance surrounding it. Secret Lives of the Super Rich opened its season with a segment on the Breeders’ Cup World Championships, which is scheduled for an encore showing Wednesday following the Fasig-Tipton episode.

Tuesday night, the reality series “Horseplayers” returns on the Esquire Network with a new episode chronicling the lives of serious handicappers. Airing Tuesday at 10 p.m. Eastern, episode four delves deeper into the background of Kevin Cox, a big bettor known as the “Brooklyn Cowboy.”

After Tuesday’s show, “Horseplayers” will go on a two-week hiatus while the NBC family of networks airs coverage of the Olympic Winter Games. New episodes will resume starting Feb. 25 and the remaining episodes of season one are set for March 4, March 11, March 18, March 25, April 1 and April 8, always at 10 p.m. Eastern.
