Beginning in 2007, the Breeders' Cup developed the
Breeders' Cup Challenge, a series of races in each division that allotted automatic qualifying bids to winners of defined races. Each of the fourteen divisions has multiple qualifying races. Note though that one horse may win multiple challenge races, while other challenge winners will not be entered in the Breeders' Cup for a variety of reasons such as injury or travel considerations. In the Filly & Mare Sprint division, runners are limited to 14 and there are up to three automatic berths. The 2022 "Win and You're In" races were: • the
Princess Rooney Stakes, a Grade 2 race run in July at
Gulfstream Park in Florida • the
Ballerina Stakes, a Grade 1 race at
Saratoga Race Course in upstate New York • the
Thoroughbred Club of America Stakes, a Grade 2 race at
Keeneland Race Course in Kentucky ==Records==
