BREEDERS CUP

Name 2 and "only" 2 horses for Breeders Cup.

The first being the most likely winner, regardless of price, during the 2 days.

Secondly, who do you think is the "best bet"?

I'll go first.

Most Likely: Sorry to be so predictable but I'm quite sure CALIFORNIA CHROME will win.

Best Bet: Drefong

MLW: California Chrome. Still debating whether you can single here - might have to use Arrogate as a backup.

Best value: Stellar Wind - 9/2 in European markets right now. Incredible value.

Tepin should be able to easily handle Mondialiste in the Mile at a great price.

Oscar Performance, best bet.

I realize that you asked for one choice and only one choice; however, I will do that, but conditionally.

In the Breeders' Cup Distaff, I will go with Beholder.

My conditional pick will be Arrogate in the Breeders’ Cup Classic given that Frosted runs in it.

No Best Bet

Songbird is just razor sharp right now. Borderline freakish...
That's my "fo sho" winner.
If Syndergaard takes care of business this Saturday in the Champaign, that one will be my best bet.

The things that still bothers me about CC is that if he doesn't make the lead, you know he's getting the 3w trip. Espinoza will not allow him to take dirt. Race dynamics will be big in the classic IMO. Still, if he makes the lead, he'll be tough.

Couldn't agree more with Stellar Wind... Assuming a halfway decent trip, she should bury this field. To me Songbird is the bet against of the weekend... She has done absolutely nothing to warrant favoritism in this spot.
