The 2025 Breeders' Cup World Championships, held at Del Mar Oct. 31 and Nov. 1, will offer fans a “multi-screen, multi-platform viewing experience' with race coverage both days, Breeders' Cup Limited announced Tuesday.

Anchored by the GI Breeders' Cup Classic running as the ninth race on a 12-race card at 6:25 pm EST, Saturday's coverage begins at 2pm EST on USA, then jumps to NBC from 3:30-7pm before returning to USA from 7-8pm. Live continuous coverage will also be available on Peacock and on FanDuel TV along with all of the Breeders' Cup social media channels including Facebook, X and Youtube.

“Sports consumption has shifted dramatically–fans now expect premium live content on the device and platform of their choice,” said Justin McDonald, Executive Vice President & Chief Marketing Officer, Breeders' Cup. “By deepening our partnerships with NBC Sports and FanDuel TV and expanding our direct-to-consumer streaming, we're making the Breeders' Cup more accessible, more engaging, and more in tune with how fans experience live sports today. This multi-platform strategy, which mirrors successful approaches adopted across other major sports properties, has been a key driver of the Breeders' Cup's record international growth and wagering.”

Future Stars Friday will run on USA from 4-8pm EST and also includes the aforementioned streaming and social media options with the GI FanDuel Breeders' Cup Juvenile running as the ninth race of 10 on the day at 7:45pm EST.

“Once again this year, our team is thrilled to continue our partnership with the Breeders' Cup, which will include on-site coverage from Del Mar throughout the week. Fans can look forward to up-to-the-minute news and developments in our daily Breakfast at the Breeders' Cup show, as well as expert analysis and insights in the Breeders' Cup Players' Show, helping viewers around the world handicap and wager on the best two days of racing anywhere,” said Michael Shiffman, SVP and Executive Producer, FanDuel TV. “With the Breeders' Cup's expanded digital distribution and growing international reach, this year presents a tremendous opportunity to connect our content with a global audience.”
