Breeders’ Cup Juvenile Turf tips

• 8 out of 10 of these races have been won by the European-based colts.
• 8 out of 10 times, at least one longshot (with 18-1+) has finished the race in the Superfecta (majority in 3^rd and 4^th places).
• Jockey Ryan Moore and trainer Aidan O’Brien have successfully won three of these races together.
• California-based horses are normally no-shows in these races.
• Having run at least two races is increasingly becoming a norm and key criterion in these races.
• It is considered very hard to win if one goes wire to wire in this particular race, as things don’t change much at the Del Mar turf. Mid-pack closer type is considered the most successful running style in this race.
• Post position is of little consequence as the field starts at the top of the stretch, providing ample opportunity to gain position well before the first turn.

Breeders’ Cup Classic tips

• This race is expected to be huge again this year with the West Coast and Arrogate (Bob Baffert’s box office smash hits) facing off, along with Gun Runner, considered one of the most consistent performers. It is widely expected to be the best race of this year!
• While many might be wondering if Arrogate would be able to adjust to the Del Mar’s surface, the bigger question is – will he be mentally prepared for the race? Apparently, it’s entirely up to him when he wants to give a big dud show and when to put in a record-breaking effort. Here’s more on Arrogate’s chances. On the other hand, West Coast is one of the rising stars and is widely expected to take the top honours.
• Baffert’s has registered wins in the last 3 instances of this race, and is doing everything right to make it 4 wins in a row.

• Many might think that closers hold the edge in this race, however, looking at the previous 5 editions, 3 of them were won with wire to wire finishes.
• When it comes to Del Mar turf, it’s an off-the-pace kind of horse that holds a better shot here, compared to one you would expect to win at Keeneland or Santa Anita.
