It's the "World Cup" of thoroughbread racing - as top horses from around the globe meet to compete in the Breeders Cup World Championship.

The Breeders' Cup is comprised of 14 separate and sensational races that take place each year in the fall at a different NTRA racetrack.

This year, watch for the 2010 Breeders' Cup World Championships to be be held at historic Churchill Downs for a record seventh time.

The 27th Breeders' Cup, will be be run on Friday, November 5 and Saturday, November 6, 2010, and will be televised live on ESPN and ABC to a worldwide audience of more than 120 countries.

Churchill Downs, the home of the Kentucky Derby, has previously hosted the Breeders' Cup in 1988, 1991, 1994, 1998, 2000 and 2006 and has been the site of six of the seven largest crowds in Breeders' Cup history.

All about the Breeders Cup

The Breeders' Cup World Championships caps the annual racing season with the richest races in the sport, honoring the fastest sprinters, most promising two-year-olds, and the best turf horses.

The very best of the best eventually compete in the final race for the ultimate in prestige and the richest purse in horse racing: the $5 million Breeders' Cup Classic.


Breeders Cup



In keeping with its star status as the ultimate in thoroughbred horse racing, the very first Breeders Cup took place at Hollywood Park in 1984. Almost immediately, the race took on the glamour of the Oscar Awards, giving the sport a high-profile to become the hottest ticket in horse racing.

The Breeders' Cup Classic is open to horses of both sexes as are the Spring, the Mile and Turf races. The remaining four are the Juvenile, the Juvenile Fillies, Distaff and the Filly & Mare Turf for females ages three and up.

Whichever the groups of horses are in contention, it's certain that national pride is on the line each time. Intense rivalry develops in almost each successive race among owners and trainers, primarily from the U.S., England, Ireland, France, Germany & Japan over who will claim the best horse in competition.
