Breeders Cup Racetracks

Hollywood Park in Inglewood, California hosted the first Breeders Cup, and has played host two other times. New York’s Belmont Park has hosted the event four times, while Santa Anita and Gulfstream parks have hosted three Cups. The only Breeders Cup to be held outside the United States was the 1996 championships at Woodbine, outside Toronto, Ontario.

The 2006 Breeders Cup was held at Churchill Downs in Louisville, Kentucky. It was the 6th time for Churchill Downs to hold the Breeders Cup, more than any other racetrack. The five previous times that Churchill Downs hosted the Breeders Cup thoroughbred horse race was in 1988, 1991, 1994, 1998, and 2000. The 2006 Breeders Cup World Championships at Churchill Downs was also the first time in the Breeders Cup 23-year history that it was televised.
