all in Breeders' Cup

NBC Sports will provide extensive coverage of the 41st Breeders’ Cup World Championships at Del Mar on Nov. 1-2. The season-culminating event features 14 races worth more than $34 million in purses and awards.

A job for three summers at the Virginia Racing Commission while Courtney Reid was still a student at James Madison University introduced her to the world of horse racing, something she knew little about other than watching the Kentucky Derby on TV. But Reid, who graduated from college in 2012 with a degree in science and psychology and later received a masters in public health from Liberty University, was so drawn in by horse racing she pursued it as her career of choice.

Once upon a time, in the year 2021, an unheralded Japanese-bred mare named Marche Lorraine arrived at Del Mar to compete in the $2 million Longines Breeders’ Cup Distaff.

There is something extra special when a flashy Quarter Horse palomino stands out amid hundreds of world-class Thoroughbreds and their ponies at this year’s Breeders’ Cup World Championships Nov. 1-2 at Del Mar.

The Breeders’ Cup World Championships is the ultimate handicapping puzzle for horseplayers, and it’s especially appealing to those who adhere to the maxim of “bet a little to win a lot.”

The 14-race slate of Breeders’ Cup races brings together great horses from all regions in the U.S. as well as from overseas, which means that year after year, top-class runners with full résumés go off at odds far higher than they would in any other setting.
