Monday, Oct. 7, 2002 | 9:06 a.m.
Ralph Siraco's horse racing column appears Monday and his Southern California selections run Tuesday-Sunday.
Breeders' Cup here we come!
The Sport of King's championship day of racing is less than three weeks away and the final wave of prep races for the World Thoroughbred Championship came like a Tsunami over the weekend from coast to coast and over the pond, too.

Next stop, Arlington Park.
