Breeders’ Cup Ltd. announced Oct. 14 the broadcast schedule and post times for the 42nd running of the Breeders’ Cup World Championships, set for Oct. 31–Nov. 1 at Del Mar Thoroughbred Club in Del Mar, Calif. This year’s coverage will deliver an unprecedented multi-screen, multi-platform viewing experience — reaching fans where and how they want to watch.
Apparently, there is a multitude of 3-year-old filly sprinters looking for graded stakes honors in their own age bracket before the year ends. That would explain why Saturday’s $400,000 Lexus Raven Run Stakes, a Grade 2 stakes at Keeneland, attracted an overflow field of 15 that includes three also-eligible entrants.
With the 2025 Breeders’ Cup World Championships just over two weeks away, the Thoroughbred racing calendar in North America is fairly light on marquee stakes events, although one final “Win and You’re In” race overseas is set for Saturday, Oct. 18.
