Breeders’ Cup results 2024: Saturday’s winners, prize payouts and schedule

Posted by Admin November 2, 2024 Horse Racing

The Breeders’ Cup World Championships is one of the richest events in sports, with over $30 million paid out in purses and awards.

Owners will be paid through the 10th-place finish position and will share their winnings with their jockeys and trainers on their agreed-upon terms. A victory may carry more weight than just the prize money at stake as it can also boost a horse’s value when it comes time to consider breeding.

The 2024 event, staged at the Del Mar Thoroughbred Club in California, featured five Breeders’ Cup races on Friday with nine more on tap Saturday. The Breeders’ Cup has been held at other venues previously, including Santa Anita Park, Keeneland and Churchill Downs among others.
