Breeders’ Cup to be spread over two days

The 2007 World Thoroughbred Championships, which will be held at the Monmouth Park track in New Jersey, will maintain its traditional Saturday programme of eight races but Breeders’ Cup organisers have added three races to its event schedule, each worth a US$1 million, and to be run the day before, Friday, October 26.

The new races will be a one-mile event on dirt for three-year-olds and up, a dirt sprint for fillies and mares, and a mile turf race for two-year-old males.
