The cup is organized by Breeders' Cup Limited and the event promises some of the most exciting horse races for the horse racing fans across the nation as it is a Grade I race for thoroughbred horses. If you know anything about horse breeding then you know exactly what kind of a mega horse racing event it is. Each year, the event is organized in a mammoth setup as it is the biggest competition of the Kentucky Derby event.

The racing event started off in 1984 and was a success right from the beginning but for about twelve years, it was nothing more than a single day event. The ever increasing popularity of the event forced the organizers to make it a two day event instead of one. Each year thousands and thousands of people hit the venue to catch the live action. The two days of the events are loaded with racing events with over fourteen races producing fourteen different champions of the event in different kinds of circuits. The event was initially held with the intention of picking a champion by North American thoroughbred racing of the local horses. Ever since its inception, it has become a mega event with spectacular entertainment value for not just horse owners but also for horse racing fans. The two days of the event are considered to be one of the richest days in sports.

There are different kinds of racing tracks for different races. Even the distance of the tracks varies for all fourteen races. A maximum of fourteen horses are selected for a single race (with a few exceptions). There are few races for Fillies and Juveniles for which only twelve horses are selected for the race. The horses are selected with the help of a field selection system and the judges rank the horses as per that system. Even though the races are held as per a predefined order but nothing really is unalterable as throughout the history of the event, the order of the races has changed many times. If anything, it has only contributed to the excitement of the event.

It is this excitement that has brought fans to the event year after year. The races have drawn a spectacular crowd which grows with every passing year. The Breeders’ Cup even though, is not such an old event, but its popularity has already beaten that of most other horse racing events all across the US. For any horse racing fan, the event is a must watch. Grab your Breeders Cup tickets now have the time of your life.
