Hitman wins first race since boxer Hatton’s death
Hitman, named after late boxer Ricky Hatton, wins his first race since 2022 at Aintree.
Breeders’ Cup World Championships week has arrived, and media coverage of horse racing will reach a crescendo surpassed only by Kentucky Derby week and occasionally the lead-in weeks to the Preakness Stakes and Belmont Stakes. The 42nd annual Breeders’ Cup, set for Friday, Oct. 31, and Saturday, Nov. 1, will draw a good amount of national and international attention and in terms of quality racing, the two-day event is unmatched.
