The 2008 Breeders' Cup World Championships were held last weekend at Santa Anita Park in Arcadia, California. Horses and jockeys raced 14 championship races of differing grades and surfaces, and prizes totalling $25.5 milllion were awarded. Collected here are photos from the Breeders' Cup, and several others, taking a look at horses in the news around the world recently, at work and at play.
