Perhaps the most notable storyline for this week’s Breeders’ Cup World Championships at Keeneland is that Saturday’s $7 million Classic will feature two former Kentucky Derby winners.
It’s the first time since 1991 — when Unbridled and Strike the Gold battled at Churchill Downs — such a scenario exists.
Reigning Kentucky Derby winner Golden Tempo and 2025 winner Sovereignty are among the eight horses entered in the Classic on Saturday, Oct. 31.
“I think it’s great,” Golden Tempo trainer Cherie DeVaux said. “The world knows about Sovereignty and Golden Tempo. To have those out there, I think it’s great for our sport and our industry, and growing our fan base”
There are 14 races on the Breeders’ Cup slate, with five scheduled for Friday (all for 2-year-olds) and nine more on Saturday.
Horse racing fans may know all about the past two Kentucky Derby winners, but what about the other top horses who will be competing this weekend?
Here’s a look at them and 10 more top horses entered in this weekend’s races, listed alphabetically:
