Breeders' Cup Turf

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The Breeders' Cup Turf is a Weight for Age Thoroughbred horse race on turf for three-year-olds and up. It is held annually at a different racetrack in the United States or Canada as part of the Breeders' Cup. The race's current title sponsor is John Deere.

In recent years this race has come to be dominated by European Horses who have crossed the sea, as was reflected by the first four horses in the 2005 contest.

Distance: 1½ miles
