On November 3-4 Santa Anita Park in Arcadia, California will host the 40th annual Breeders’ Cup World Championships. Be prepared for all the Breeders Cup action with our horse racing picks. Fourteen races will be run over the two-day event with total awards and purses in excess of $31 million. The Breeders’ Cup World Championship is the sports’ premier racing event of the year. The world's best thoroughbreds will take part following qualifying races that took place across the globe.
The Breeders’ Cup Filly & Mare Sprint is seven furlongs in length with a purse of $1 million. The race is around one turn and for females that are 3 years old and older and is the richest race in North America for female sprinters. The heavy favorite (6 to 5) in this race is Goodnight Olive. Irad Ortiz Jr will be on board and Chad C Brown is the trainer. Goodnight Olive won the 2022 Breeders’ Cup Filly & Mare Sprint by 2 1/2 lengths and will be tough to catch this year.
The second best odds belong to Society at 5 to 2. Tyler Gaffalione will be on board and Steven M Asmussen is the trainer. Society returned to form when setting a new track record at the Chicago Stakes, after leading wire to wire and winning by over 10 lengths. In 11 lifetime starts, Society has seven wins and one show with earnings of nearly $1.5 million.
Although the heavy favorite is Goodnight Olive, we like Society, who returned to form back in June with a 10+ length victory in the Chicago Stakes, which is the same distance as this race. She won again on August 25th at Charlestown and will be too fast out of the gate and around the turn for anyone including Goodnight Olive to maintain pace and much less out sprint over the final furlough. Pick: Society.
