Breeder's Cup selections for Saturday (11/7) main card

Breeders' Cup Juvenile Turf

Viscount Nelson (#2) – another O’Brien two year old runner who also has done quite well in group races overseas, many European pundits like his chances here.
Interactif (#11) – a different horse since switched to the weeds, best of the American based runners.

Exotic & multi-race runners : Bridgetown (#7) – Buzzword (#12) – Pounced (#4)

Breeder’s Cup Turf Sprint

Gotta Have Her (#7) – hard hitting mare is 4 for 4 at this distance & 6 for 8 over Santa Anita turf course, 11 for 13 the last two years ITM and will be a price here.

California Flag (#3) – speedball is the “one to catch” again this year in this race, tired badly in last year’s running.

Exotic & multi-race runners : Diamondrella (#9) – Cannonball (#6) – Silver Timber (#2)

Breeder’s Cup Sprint

Gayego (#5) – third start off layoff, monster victory with late charge in the Anicent Title last time out, runs down the speed in the end.

Capt.Candyman Can (#8) – pass the synthetic test last time out at Keeneland in the Phoenix Stakes, connections go here with heavy hearts because of the recent passing of one of his owners.

Exotic & multi-race runners : Zensational (#1) – Fatal Bullet (#3) – Crown of Thorns (#4)

Breeders' Cup Juvenile

Aikenite (#9) – rallied quickly first time on polytrack & going a route distance, taken to upset here and possibly at a price.

Lookin At Lucky (#13) – undefeated local runner has been the odds-on in all four lifetime starts, the "one to beat" as the favorite.

Exotic & multi-race runners : Noble’s Promise (#4) – Radiohead (#11) – D’Funnybone (#5)

Breeder’s Cup Mile

Cowboy Cal (#3) – never been better at the flat mile distance and seems to flourish on the west coast, will be motoring on the front end & turns back the “wise guy” Euros.

Zacinto (#8) – lightly raced European runner comes into this race with a sharp 2nd behind Rip Van Winkle (a Classic starter) last time out, would be no surprise here.

Exotic & multi-race runners : Goldikova (#11) – Justenuffhumor (#10) – Courageous Cat (#6)

Breeders' Cup Dirt Mile

Midshipman (#3) – last year’s Breeder’s Cup Juvenile winner here makes his second start off the layoff after returning on the dirt sprinting at Belmont Park, loved the pro-ride here last year & should be a square price.

Mastercraftsman (#1) – sharp Irish bred three year old has finished behind European superstar; Sea The Stars, draws the rail for his second synthetic race start which he romped first time on .

Exotic & multi-race runners : Ready’s Echo (#10) – Mr. Sidney (#8) – Bullsbay (#4)

Breeders' Cup Turf

Spanish Moon (#7) – on paper this European runner looks to have this field “over a barrel” with his recent form, he’s my Best Bet on Saturday’s card & overall “lock” of the Cup.

Presious Passion (#6) – American “speed ball” has out raced them this year with four wins in seven starts, quite possibly could “wire” this field of runners.

Exotic & multi-race runners : Conduit (#2) – Da Re Mei (#5)

Breeder’s Cup Classic

Girolamo (#9) – taking a longshot flyer in this very tough edition of the Classic, has not raced on synthetic surface yet….but, his sire AP Indy has placed several stake winners on it, loved this horse in his debut last summer at Saratoga and is razor sharp coming into this race.

Quality Road (#12) – this very talented three year old runner has been one of my favorites this past year, caught a slop track in his last two starts and didn’t run poorly, now tries the pro-ride for the first time & connections may try to rate him more in today’s race, you’ll NEVER get this morning line price on him again!

Exotic & multi-race runners : Zenyatta (#4) – Summer Bird (#3) – Gio Ponti (#7)
