Breeders Cup 2008

Date:24-25 October
Location: Monmouth Park in Oceanport, N.J

The Breeders Cup 2008 Classic

Horse racing fans will flock to Monmouth Park to witness horse contenders from around the world to compete for the accumulated $23 million in purses for the eight plus three Breeders Cup races, bringing the total races to 11 starting this year!

ESPN takes the reins again this year as the official television broadcaster airing all Big 11 races in their entirety beginning Friday, October 24, 2008.

The Breeders' Cup Championship culminates the racing season and crowns the fleetest sprinters, the 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.

The Breeders' Cup is a year-end international showcase of the youngest horse racing greatest stars. It's the All Star Game of Thoroughbred racing - only better. Eight times better. It's the Breeders' Cup Championship, a multi-million dollar extravaganza that brings together the world's best horses to compete in eight sensational races.

The $4 million Breeders' Cup Championship is non-stop action from the moment the horses step onto the track for the first race, the Distaff, until the garland is draped across the shoulders of the Classic winner at dusk. Heart stopping finishes, stunning upsets, international glamour, old-fashioned fun - Breeders' Cup Championship has it all.

Horses have journeyed from as far away as Japan to compete in the Breeders' Cup Championship. It truly has become the foremost international racing event. "The program was looked at as a revolutionary step when it started, but now it is considered part of the fabric of American racing," says Breeders' Cup president D. G. Van Clief, Jr.

The Breeders' Cup Championship continues to grow in popularity because of its prestige and keen level of competition. Churchill Downs in Louisville, Kentucky, holds the records for both attendance and total wagering. The renowned racecourse attracted 80,452 spectators in 1998 and when Breeders' Cup came back to Louisville in 2000, over $108 million was wagered.

The Breeders' Cup Championship has provided racing with some of its finest moments. Images like these are indelibly etched in its rich chronicles - the great Cigar ending his perfect 1995 season with a thrilling victory in the Breeders' Cup Classic; Personal Ensign courageously inching past Kentucky Derby winner Winning Colors to retire undefeated in 1988; Arazi swooping in from France and stunning all who saw him in the 1991 Breeders' Cup Juvenile.

2007 Breeders' Cup Results

This was the 24th Breeders' Cup. Champions were crowned, pretenders were exposed, handicappers made memorable scores or went home broke and everybody got wet.

After two months of dry, unseasonably warm weather, clouds rolled in Wednesday and never left. They dumped 2½ inches of rain that turned the main track into muck. Only on Breeders' Cup day would grass racing have been conducted in North America on such a saturated surface.

After the 2 minutes of horse racing excitment, a mud-splattered Robby Albarado grinned as a blanket of purple and yellow flowers was draped over Classic hero Curlin.

Making a persuasive case for Horse of the Year, Curlin also won the Jockey Club Gold Cup and Preakness (both gr. I) this year. He has won six of his nine starts and has never finished out of the money. The Classic victory, worth $2.7 million, increased Curlin's lifetime earnings to $5,102,800 just this year, not bad for any horse, let alone one who sold for just $57,000 as a yearling.

Curlin paid $10.80, $5,20, and $4.20 while Hard Spun paid $7.60 and $5.80. Awesome Gem, a 28-1 shot, returned $9.40 for the show. The exacta paid $70.80, while the $1 trifecta paid $645.30. Past years Breeder's Cup results and information Click Here!
