THIS I GOTTA SEE

All times Eastern

SAT 10

Kentucky Derby champ Barbaro and Preakness winner Bernardini aren't running, which means the Belmont Stakes (6:30 p.m., ABC) is really, really wide-open. How's that for a positive spin?

* The promoters for the megathrowdown between light heavies Bernard Hopkins and Antonio Tarver (9 p.m., HBO pay-per-view) are calling this the "Fight to the Finish." For the suggested retail price of $49.95, I would hope so.

SUN 11

OK, so it's not breakfast at Wimbledon. But a nice filet bernaise and the French Open mows final (9 a.m, NBC) still is a fine way to jump-start your Sunday.
