A star-studded field featuring Kentucky Derby winners Sovereignty and Golden Tempo and Japanese superstar Forever Young will square off when the starting gate opens in the 2026 Breeders' Cup Classic on Saturday at Keeneland Race Course in Lexington, Ky. The Breeders' Cup Classic marks the first time since 1991 that two Kentucky Derby winners will race against each other.

Sovereignty (5-2), Knightsbridge (9-2), Golden Tempo (5-1) and Magnitude (6-1) round out the top five choices in the eight-horse Breeders' Cup Classic field. Post time is 6:16 p.m. ET.
