Hello racing fans wherever in the world you happen to be, and welcome to the Guardian’s liveblog coverage of the 2026 Breeders’ Cup meeting at Keeneland in Kentucky.
As is now traditional at the self-styled “World Championships” of Flat racing, Friday is for the juveniles, with a total of $7m (£5.2m) up for grabs, while tomorrow’s nine-race card, worth $27m (£20.3m) will include the Turf and the Classic, featuring many of the best middle-distance runners in the game.
