The first Breeders' Cup was held in Hollywood Park and consisted of a single day's racing. Today, it's a two-day event that attracts the world's top competitors and offers a prize of over $30 million. Put simply, it's a showstopper in the racing calendar and a unique event in which to enjoy horse racing, and 2026 will be even bigger in Lexington, Kentucky.
One of America's most exciting sporting events, the Breeders' Cup enjoys a different location each year, and we're delighted to be able to take Spectate clients right to the action in America's south at the Keeneland Racecourse in Kentucky this year. Enquire for a bespoke, tailor-made holiday!
