Sept. 30 (UPI) -- November's Breeders' Cup Classic, often a defining race for the American Horse of the Year, is shaping up as a very international event after a busy and important weekend of racing.

Two of the top preps for the Classic, one of them a "Win and You're In" event, were won by horses recently purchased by Wathnan Racing, a recent creation spearheaded by the Amir of Qatar.
