Field Selection

A maximum of 14 starters are allowed in each of the 14 Breeders' Cup Championships races. Breeders' Cup Limited has adopted a field selection system to select runners in the event fields are oversubscribed. This system ranks horses in order of preference based upon:

(i) performance in Breeders' Cup Challenge Races,

(ii) a point system,

(iii) the judgment of a panel of racing experts.

The field selection system will be implemented as necessary following the taking of pre-entries on October 25, 2010, to officially rank the oversubscribed fields. The Racing Directors/Secretaries Panel (the “Panel”) will rank all the horses pre-entered in the oversubscribed races as described below. After pre-entry, any vacancies in the fields will be filled by horses in order of panel preference.
