An Important Message to Breeders’ Cup Fans

Dear Valued Fan,
Today the Breeders’ Cup Board of Directors unanimously affirmed its commitment to conduct the 2019 Breeders’ Cup World Championships at Santa Anita Park on November 1-2. This will mark the 10th time the event will be held at Santa Anita, the most of any host venue over the 36-year history of the Breeders’ Cup.

I would like to assure you that foremost among the core values of the Breeders’ Cup are the safety and integrity of the competition and we hold ourselves, our host sites and our competitors to the highest standards of both. It is clear that meaningful and effective reforms and best practices have been implemented at Santa Anita in recent months through the collective efforts of The Stronach Group, the Thoroughbred Owners of California, the California Thoroughbred Trainers, and the California Horse Racing Board.

The Breeders’ Cup fully embraces those reforms and will devote our time and energy in the coming months to further advance those efforts. We look forward to showing you, and the rest of the world, the best in Thoroughbred racing at one of its finest venues.

As always, we appreciate your support of the Breeders’ Cup.

Sincerely,

Craig Fravel
President & CEO
