Who else enjoyed Breeders' Cup? What an amazing two days of racing Santa Anita put on with some of the absolute best horses in the world!

Now our focus shifts to a full fall season of stakes action from coast to coast. For the first time, we have a Del Mar meet in November! Plus Saturday sees the Sunshine Millions Preview races at Gulfstream Park West (aka Calder), Churchill's G3 River City Hcp, and Woodbine's always-contentious G2 Autumn Stakes is Sunday.
