In exactly a week, Breeders Cup bettingenthusiasts will be able to wager on any of the 193 horses that entered into the 15-race field earlier this week. For the reason that most casual fans wait until the Saturday to watch bookie software Breeders Cup action, chances are you will be wagering on the Breeders Cup Classic. The annual race to determine the best horse in the world has a variety of different age groups this season. With the field more widely contested then in years past, here is an NHL preview of the Breeders Cup most historic race.
Despite missing the majority of the 2011 season due to illness, Todd Pletcher trained colt Uncle Mo will be aiming to become the first Juvenile Turf winner to win the Breeders Cup Classic. In the 27 year history of the Breeders Cup Classic, no three year old has won the Juvenile Turf in their second year and then won the Grand Daddy of them all in the following year. Uncle Mo has an excellent pedigree, and in the races it has been in this season, has looked absolutely dominant. However, with a slew of horses both his own age and older, will Uncle Mo’s lack of a full season affect the colt’s finish at Churchill Downs next weekend?
If there is one horse that can challenge Uncle Mo for the Breeders Cup Classic title, it will be four-year-old filly, Havre De Grace. Seen as a distant third over the last couple of years to Zenyatta and the Rachel Alexandra, Havre De Grace has been making a name for herself in 2011. In six races this season, Havre De Grace is five and one with her lone loss being a second place finish by a nose.
