2024 Breeders’ Cup Filly & Mare Turf
Updated October 30, 2024
Purse: $2,000,000
Distance: 1 3/16 miles
Grade: 1
Age: 3-year-old+ fillies & mares
Post Time: Saturday, November 2 at 3:25 p.m. PDT (Race 9 at Del Mar)
On the calendar since 1999, the Filly & Mare Turf is a race of huge international significance as it gives some of the best route fillies on the grass the chance to shine at Grade 1 level not just when trained in the US, but also those from France, England, and Ireland. The 2024 edition of the Filly and Mare Sprint happens Saturday, November 2, at Del Mar Racetrack, as part of the second day of the Breeders’ Cup World Championships.
The race varies in distance depending on the track where it is run. Some years, it covers 1 ¼ or even 1 ⅜ miles. At Del Mar, it is at the longer end of the spectrum, 1 ⅜ miles. This benefits international stars and even domestic horses who tend toward running longer distances, though puts the owners of horses who prefer going a bit shorter in a conundrum. Do they stretch out for this, or face the boys in the Breeders’ Cup Mile? This makes the race a true handicapping challenge.

Professional handicappers and casual horseplayers alike can surely find a value wager in the Filly & Mare Turf; check the form book thoroughly. Make sure to pay attention to the distances that the horses like to run: at 1 ⅜ miles, the Breeders’ Cup Filly & Mare Turf is longer than usual this year, so stamina will be at a premium.

Breeders’ Cup Filly & Mare Turf 2024 Contenders
These are the leading contenders in the field for the 2024 Breeders’ Cup Filly and Mare Turf:
Anisette - Trainer: Leonard Powell - Sire: Awtaad
She has not missed the board in nine starts in America, all but one of which has come against graded-stakes company in California. That means the Breeders’ Cup is a class test. However, she has three wins in four starts over the Del Mar lawn. She also has two good efforts at 1 ¼ miles, making the step up to 1 ⅜ miles an interesting try. She is likely to go off at a price as the local against horses all over the world, but her best may get her in the frame over her home turf.
Beautiful Love - Trainer: Charlie Appleby - Sire: Siyouni
1 ⅜ miles is not the most common distance, but she has been coming around at this trip. She won the Jockey Club Oaks (G3) two back over the trip, and returned with a third-place finish at the same distance in her first start against older. This sophomore filly for Charlie Appleby has upside in her second try against older horses, and she is versatile enough to win a race from the lead, the clouds, or anywhere in between.
Cinderella’s Dream - Trainer: Charlie Appleby - Sire: Shamardal
She is the morning-line second choice for trainer Charlie Appleby. A sophomore, her record has been consistent: six wins in seven starts, with the only blemish coming in the 1000 Guineas (G1) at Newmarket in May. She has rallied for victory in both her starts since that, a pair of graded-stakes races against her own age in the United States. However, be wary at a short price: she may be able to handle it, but she is both facing older horses and tackling a distance longer than 1 3/16 miles for the first time.
Moira - Trainer: Kevin Attard - Sire: Ghostzapper
She hasn’t missed the board since the Breeders’ Cup Filly & Mare Turf two years ago, a stretch that included a third-place finish behind Inspiral in this race last year. Her tracking to midpack style proves a good one time and time again. The question is the distance, as she has never stretched out past 1 ¼ miles. However, she keeps hitting the board at that trip, finishing well enough to suggest that she’s not tiring and this trip is worth a shot.
War Like Goddess - Trainer: Bill Mott - Sire: English Channel
She has faced the boys in the Breeders’ Cup the last two years, but runs against fillies here after just getting run down in her three-peat attempt in the Joe Hirsch Turf Classic (G1). She has never missed the board in seven starts at or near 1 ⅜ miles, and even at the advanced age of seven she is still a mare who can take her game to racetracks all over the country and make her closing run.
Wingspan - Trainer: Aidan O’Brien - Sire: Dubawi
With six starts she is still lightly raced, but this sophomore has been running against older through the summer and fall and she has been holding her own. She missed by only a neck in the Blandford (G2) over 1 ¼ miles two back, and then was second by two lengths behind the improving Kalpana in the British Champions Fillies & Mares (G1) on October 19. She returns to a similar distance for this and should improve with the better ground.
