Where to Bet on the Breeders Cup, Best Online Racebooks and Betting Apps

The Breeders Cup runs Friday and Saturday at Keeneland, and Saturdays $7 million Classic is the richest race on the American calendar. Horse racing isnt offered on most sportsbook apps, so youll need a racebook to get in on the action. Here are the best options and where each one is available.

Friday is built around the 2-year-old races, and Saturday stacks nine more Grade 1s on top of each other before the Classic closes the show. This is Keenelands fourth time hosting, after 2015, 2020 and 2022.

Horse racing is pari-mutuel betting, which means youre betting into a pool against other bettors instead of against the house. Its regulated separately from sports betting, so racing usually lives in its own app. Each platform below is licensed for racing, but availability varies by state.

FanDuel Racing is the most widely available of the big-name racing apps, live in more than 20 states. It offers full pari-mutuel wagering on the Breeders Cup card, plus live video and replays. The best part for existing FanDuel customers is the shared wallet. If you already have a FanDuel Sportsbook account, the same balance works on FanDuel Racing, so you dont need to fund a separate account.

BetMGM Racebook is a standalone app with the same look and feel as the BetMGM Sportsbook. It covers the full Breeders Cup card, but its only available in three states right now: Florida, Louisiana and Ohio. If you live in one of them, its an easy option for BetMGM customers.

TwinSpires is owned by Churchill Downs and has been one of the biggest names in online horse racing for years. Its available in more states than most racing apps and is built for serious horse players, with deep track coverage, handicapping tools and race replays. If FanDuel Racing and BetMGM Racebook arent available where you live, TwinSpires is the first place to check.

The FanDuel and BetMGM sportsbook welcome offers cant be used on horse racing, but theres plenty else on the board. Canelo Alvarez challenges Christian Mbilli for the WBC super middleweight title Saturday, Florida and Georgia play in Atlanta, the NBA has a full Saturday night slate and the NFL takes over Sunday.

Bet the Breeders Cup on FanDuel Racing, BetMGM Racebook or TwinSpires, then take the sportsbook offers to the rest of the weekend. New users can get up to $150 in bonus bets from FanDuel or cover their first bet up to $1,500 with BetMGM bonus code FOXNEWS.
