The Breeders' Cup have announced that four races on the Irish calendar are to form part of the 'Win and You're in' series.

Winners of the Stobart Ireland Pretty Polly Stakes, the Red Mills Irish Champion Stakes, the Moyglare Stud Stakes and the Juddmonte Beresford Stakes will all have their entry fees and travel paid for ahead of the championship.

This year's Breeders' Cup takes place at Santa Anita, in California, on November 2 and 3.

Now in its sixth year, the series takes in races from all over the world.

"We are very pleased to again partner with Horse Racing Ireland and officials at the Curragh and Leopardstown in providing such outstanding races to our series and give horsemen the opportunity to gain automatic starting positions in the Breeders' Cup World Championships," said Craig Fravel, president and CEO of Breeders' Cup Ltd.
