How to watch ‘The New York Times Presents: Broken Horses’ premiere, where to stream

Twelve racehorses died last year at Churchill Downs, the home of the Kentucky Derby. In FX’s The New York Times Presents: Broken Horses, reporters investigate what threw horse racing into crisis and left fans wondering why so many horses are breaking down so frequently.
The New York Times Presents is a series of standalone documentaries representing the unparalleled journalism and insight of The New York Times, bringing viewers close to the essential stories of our time.

Where can I watch The New York Times Presents: Broken Horses?
Although premiering on FX, those without a regular cable subscription can still live stream the premiere of Broken Horses on Thursday with Sling, Fubo or DirecTV Stream.
Both Fubo and DirecTV Stream offer free trials for new subscribers so you can stream Broken Horses for free before committing to anything.
However, those willing to wait can stream the special the next day with a regular Hulu subscription.
What are the differences between Sling, FuboTV and DirecTV Stream?
Sling is considered one of the cheaper live streaming services available.
It offers three different channel packages, Sling Blue and Sling Orange that are each $40 a month and Sling Orange + Blue that is just the first two channel packages combined for $55 a month.
However, to access the FX channel and watch the season premiere of AHS, you’ll need a Sling Blue or Sling Orange + Blue subscription.
Meanwhile, Fubo and DirecTV Stream are both alternatives to regular cable, but with better channel options.
Fubo considers itself a sports-focused streaming service, but overall, its standard package comes with over 100 live channels for $79.99 a month after its free trial. These channels include ESPN, ABC, NBC, CBS, TLC, MTV and much more.
Fubo also comes with a variety of shows and movies users can watch on-demand along with the option to record your favorite TV shows.
DirecTV Stream is similar to Fubo in that it offers many of the same channels and features. At $84.98 a month with a free trial, its base package comes with a little over 75 live TV channels.
