Breeders Cup 2024-Del Mar
Friday Race 6-Juvenile Turf Sprint (7th Running)
These races that have a balance of USA/Euro/Japan runners are so hard to handicap…This should feature a very brisk pace…focusing on the 7-Whistlejacket for Aidan O’Brien, gets a nice post draw and gets the first crack at the frontrunners…10-Govenor Sam has won on four straight races on four different tracks including Saratoga and Keeneland…the 2-Aesterius is the distance specialist here winning 4 of 6 attempts…morning line favorite is Japan’s 8-Ecoro Sieg, and I got nothing to go by on this horse (any thoughts from you miscreants?)
Race 7-Juvenile Fillies
Boy, the 7-Non-Compliant checks all the boxes, 2 races, two wins, one at this distance, the other at this track…gets probably the best jock for this weekend in Hernandez, could be a single…the 3-Immersive is another strong win candidate, dominating at Kee in a similar G1 event as well as Saratoga for Trainer Cox, but Alacibides winners have not done well here at BC…the 2-Snowite tries to break her maiden in a 2 Turn BC race?...She could like her father (Good Magic 2017), huge price as well…the 10-Scottish Lassie ran quite impressively in the Frizette (15 winners of that race have gone on to win this one) but that outside post will prove a problem …the Japan horse 9-American Bikini lures Ryan Moore and could be the controlling speed…1-Vodka with A Twist is an outstanding horse, and proves the depth of this field… tougher than it looks to handicap…average winner has paid more than $20
Race 8-Juvenile Turf
Heavy favorite 1-Lake Victoria will need to scoot to get out under this big field, if she doesn’t look for both the 7-Thought Process (three straight wins since moving to turf) or the 10-Abeintot…I also like the 13-Vixen who will get a clean trip from the outside with Johnny V aboard
