Welcome to the Breeder's Cup Classic! At the classic 10 furlong distance on dirt, the Classic has made and broken careers and legacies across the world. As the last hurrah for many Thoroughbred runners, this year's Classic boasts two Derby winners, a Triple Tiara winner and a pair of Preakness winners in what is the deepest field in the forum's history. Only one horse can come out on top in what will be the most exciting and highly anticipated race of the year.

For those of you who want to enter horses that are not already qualified, it will cost you 12 BC POINTS which will be deducted from your horse's total BC points found here. Once your horse has entered, I will subtract from your total and you'll be good to go! If you see I've made a mistake in calculating your points of your horses, please PM me!

Good luck and happy racing!

CONGRATULATIONS TO SKEPTIC AND RHAPSODY STABLES FOR WINNING THE BREEDERS' CUP CLASSIC!!

Skeptic jumped to the front and never looked back in a scintillating victory over BC Distaff winner Cyclone Princess as he held off the late rallies from all of his rivals, familiar and new. At only three years old, Skeptic has proven himself to be just as outstanding as his father and half-sister, coming within 3/10ths of a second of his father's Classic record and beating his own Derby time by another 3/10ths of a second.

Skeptic has won all three open company BC dirt races in the same year, a feat that has never been accomplished. He has three BC wins to his credit, in addition to his Kentucky Derby and Preakness Stakes victories. He is only the 2nd three year old to win the Classic.

This was one of the best races I have EVER seen on this forum and I am so happy to see how many records fell tonight and how competitive every single stable was tonight. While Skeptic was a dominating force on the dirt, nearly every stable that entered tonight either won a race or placed in the Top 3, and I could not be happier with how this year's Breeders' Cup turned out.

THANK YOU, to every member that made this possible, and puts up with my love of this sport both on the forum and off of it.

This is all for you guys.
