Welcome
The Inaugural Breeders' Cup Fantasy Challenge is in the books, and everyone at Churchill Downs and the Breeders' Cup couldn't be more pleased with how the game turned out. With 16,473 players participating, we were overwhelmed with the reception the game received from the fans. As so often happens in the Breeders' Cup, there were plenty of surprises on the day that made handicapping the card quite a challenge. Our grand prize winner, Larry Moore, from Louisville, KY, had four Breeders' Cup winning horses in his stable, as well as two jockeys and three trainers. We will post his entire stable shortly. The top 20 finishers have all been verified and are listed in order below. Again, we would like to thank everyone for playing the 2006 Breeders' Cup Fantasy Challenge and hope you all are looking forward to the 2007 Road to the Roses Fantasy Challenge, which will begin next February.
