The 1 ¼-mile Breeders’ Cup Classic is the defining race of this event as Saturday nine horses will take the starting gate to determine the Horse of the Year with jockey Flavien Prat, who has won the Classic two of the last three years, will be aboard Sierra Leone (7-2 odds) who is looking to be the first horse to win the Classic in back-to-back years since Tiznow claimed the title in 2000 and 2001. Sierra Leone has finished in the money in 13 consecutive races including a second place finish at the 2024 Kentucky Derby and a third place finish at the Belmont Stakes a month later, and won the Whitney Stakes at Saratoga back in August.

Also on the card for Saturday is the $5 million Longines Turf race that has seen Irish horses take the title four times in the last five years with Minnie Hauk and Ethical Diamond looking to extend that streak for Ireland born horses.
