The $1 million final of the Pepsi North America Cup will be the next featured race on Sirius XM satellite radio’s ‘Saturday Night at the Races’ series.

The lucrative ‘Cup’ dash for three-year-old pacers will take place on Saturday, June 20 at Mohawk Racetrack in Campbellville, Ont. Eliminations will take place on Saturday, June 13.

Saturday Night at the Races will consist of nine broadcasts this year, covering many of the top harness racing events in North America.

This year’s Saturday Night at the Races Series began with the May 30 final of the Art Rooney Pace at Yonkers Raceway. In a new twist this year, the series will also include a Friday night broadcast, the August 14 Dan Patch from Hoosier Park.
