It’s one of the biggest events in the racing calendar in the world let alone just the US, with a plethora of Graded contests.
In fact, there’s a staggering 14 Grade 1 races throughout the weekend ranging from the turf to the dirt, from 5f to 1m4f and from two-year-old contests to experienced horses back for more.
As there’s a tonne of racing there’s lots to consider when making selections for the Breeders’ Cup, especially those that are hotly contested with some familiar names from British and Irish horse racing.
Even in the first Grade 1 of the weekend, the Breeders’ Cup Juvenile Turf Sprint which features Aesterius, Big Mojo, Whistlejacket, Ides Of March, Magnum Force, Shareholder and Arizona Blaze from Ireland and Britain.
The Breeders’ Cup is quite unique with the way the US races and the tracks, even the 5f containing a bend which can be difficult for horses used to only racing down the straights of the British and Irish courses.
Lake Victoria is a big favourite under Ryan Moore for trainer Aidan O’Brien, who have enjoyed a fruitful season with a tonne of big group winners and a plethora of winners in general.
They could scoop a big prize here with this favourite and unbeaten filly by Frankel.
She’s already scooped over £400k in prize money and could double that with a good run here over 1m in the Juvenile Fillies Turf.
There’s big prize money on offer throughout these but the biggest two payout over £2 million to their respective winners.
The first is the 1m4f Breeders’ Cup Turf for the horses aged three-years-old and over.
The likes of Rebel’s Romance, Jayarebe, Wingspan and Shahryar enter into this race with the US entries only massive each-way prices.
The biggest race of them all, the 1m2f contest with £2.86 million going to the winner is the Breeders’ Cup Classic.
City Of Troy is the big favourite for the feature race of the weekend, with Moore on board yet again for O’Brien’s big bid over the pond.
