When is the 2023 Breeders' Cup?

The Breeders' Cup takes place on Friday 3rd November and Saturday 4th November in 2023.

The Breeders' Cup is a world-famous horse racing meeting, staged in the United States every November. Over the two days, 13 Grade One prizes will be handed out, with the total prize money for the meet surpassing $35m.

In 2023, the Breeders' Cup returns to Santa Anita racecourse, in Arcadia, California.

Day one of the Breeders' Cup is known as Future Stars Friday, and the card features huge two-year-old races like the Juvenile Turf and the Breeders' Cup Juvenile. Nine Grade One races take place on Saturday, including the Breeders' Cup Mile, Breeders' Cup Turf and the Breeders' Cup Classic.

Top US trainers like Bob Baffert, Chad Brown and Todd Pletcher will point their best horses at the Breeders' Cup. This year's leading US juveniles, Cave Rock, Wonder Wheel and Forte could run at the Breeders' Cup in Santa Anita. Top European trainer, Aidan O'Brien and Charlie Appleby dominated the Turf races at this year's Festival, so watch out for their runners in California in 2023.

The Breeders' Cup is a two-day series of racing which features some of the best thoroughbreds from all around the world.

Held in November, the Breeders' Cup is targeted by the biggest stables and the Breeders' Cup Classic and Breeders' Cup Turf excite fans and punters alike.

Horses from all different backgrounds line up for the big prize money and it's a true celebration of the thoroughbred, which is what the founders of the Breeders' Cup were wanting.

In 1982, a group of thoroughbred breeders from Kentucky devised a plan to see which horse was the best in the world. 

This culminated in the Breeders' Cup being born and the hopes of racing in the US to be a global event was achieved.

The first running was in 1984 where there were seven premier races on the card and it has now evolved into a 13-race card over two days.

The destination changes from year-to-year but the likes of Del Mar, Churchill Downs and Santa Anita feature prominently.

With the lowest stake on offer being $1 million, the racing on offer for punters to bet on is top-quality and that's why it's quickly becoming one of the biggest racing festivals in the world.
