It will enable fans to bet on up to 24 wagering interests for the Longines Breeders’ Cup Classic well in advance of the Oct. 31 race date. Odds on horses in the future pools typically provide more value to horseplayers than those available on race day.

Both future bet pools will consist of a maximum of 23 unique wagering interests and one “All Other Starters” wager for a total of 24 betting interests. “All Other Starters” includes any Thoroughbreds entered in the Longines Breeders’ Cup Classic other than the pool’s individual horses.
Betting on all Breeders’ Cup future wagers will be offered via at advanced-deposit wagering (“ADW”) sites, racetracks, casinos, simulcast centers, and off-track betting sites.
