Breeders' Cup Mile 11/04/23 - Horse Racing Picks & Predictions
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 Mile is run over 1-mile with a purse of $2 million. The top milers on turf take part in this race, which is around two turns and open to both male and females 3 years and older. Horses that get out of the gate quickly are favored as they attempt to secure a strong position for the final stretch run to the wire. Songline is the morning line favorite at 5 to 2.
Songline will have Keita Tosaki on board and Toru Hayashi as the trainer. The five-year old mare finished second in her debut but was victorious in her next start. Songline has seven wins, three places and one show in 16 career starts with winning over $6.2 million. Thus far in 2023, she has two wins and one place in four starts.
My pick in this mile race is Master of the Seas at 7 to 2 which are the second best odds. William Buick will ride on board the UK based thoroughbred. Over 15 career starts, Master of the Seas has reached the winners circle seven times and placed or showed five times. The fiver-year old gelding finished a close second last time out but was the leader most of the way. Pick: Master Of The Seas.
