At The Races is a British television channel owned by Sky plc and Arena Racing Company, owner of 27 (out of the 60) UK racecourses. It is one of the two major UK horse racing television channels, along with Racing UK.

It was originally launched in 2000 as a partnership between the afformentioned entities plus Channel Four Television Corporation. It stopped broadcasting in 2003 due to financial problems but, after restructuring, was relaunched in 2004 without Channel Four.

The station is focused on horse racing from the UK, Ireland, North America, France and (overnight) Australia, showing many live races and related shows.

The channel starts broadcasting at 9am every day. In the mornings on the hour, Racing News is shown, followed by reviews of previous days racing. This format is repeated several times and updated with interviews. Presenters change over in the early afternoon and the lead presenter is joined by a guest to discuss the afternoon's racing.
