The Breeders' Cup Filly & Mare Turf is a Weight for Age Thoroughbred horse race on turf for fillies and mares, three years old and up. It is held annually at a different racetrack in the United States as part of the Breeders' Cup World Championships. The race is run at either or , depending on the turf course configuration at the Breeders' Cup host track. For tracks which can accommodate either distance (Belmont, Woodbine, and Santa Anita 〔(Belmont Track Records )〕), it is run at miles. The 2015 edition at Keeneland was conducted at 1 3/16 miles because that track's turf course configuration does not allow for the two regular distances to be conducted on it.〔(Keeneland a Breeders' Cup Homecoming )〕 == Automatic Berths == Beginning in 2007, the Breeders' Cup developed "The Breeders' Cup Challenge," a series of races in each division that allotted automatic qualifying bids to winners of defined races. Each of the thirteen divisions has between three and ten of these, "Win and You're In," qualifying races. In the Breeders' Cup Filly and Mare Turf Division runners are limited to 14 and there are six automatic berths. The "Win and You're In" races are: 1. the Beverly D. Stakes, a Grade 1 race at Arlington Park in Chicago, Illinois;〔(Breeders Cup Challenge )〕 2. the Yorkshire Oaks, a Group 1 race at York Racecourse in York, England;〔 3. the Canadian Stakes, a Grade 2 race at Woodbine Racetrack in Toronto, Ontario, Canada;〔 4. the Flower Bowl Invitational Stakes, a Grade 1 race at Belmont Park in Elmont, New York;〔 5. the Rodeo Drive Stakes, a Grade 1 race at Santa Anita Park in Arcadia, California〔 and 6. the Prix de l'Opera, a Group 1 race at Longchamp Racecourse in Paris, France.〔 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア(Wikipedia)』 ■ウィキペディアで「Breeders' Cup Filly & Mare Turf」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
