Another Breeder's Cup Championships is in the books. What a fantastic two days of racing it was. More great racing is yet to be seen. On this first day of November we take a look at a splendid Turf race down in sunny Florida.
Gulfstream Park West {1 1/16 mile~TURF~3 year-old Up~Allowance}
A fine group of seven will hit the green in this feature Turf battle. There is enough speed to maintain an honest pace giving all entrants a chance at victory. Speed numbers are relatively close. It is a great mix of runners with hopes of improvement on the Turf. Our task is to string together a winning group of runners for our 10 CENT Superfecta box ticket.
#5 Sublime Appeal (Gonzales / Rizo) has the most upside potential coming off a maiden win. This colt shares the third highest (3-way tie) last out speed number, is working a two race progression, and has put in one solid workout. He is our Bronze Horseshoe selection.
$1 SHOW.
#7 Minecraft (Caraballo / Nagle) is seeking his third win in a row sharing that third highest last out speed number. This lad has already notched a win over the Gulfstream Park West course and has the third highest overall in the money record at 60%. With a proper pace he will be closing gallantly.
#3 Black Martino (Gaffalione / Garaffalo) should challenge with the highest last out speed number and a three race progression. This guy should be forwardly placed ready to spring into the stretch. He holds a solid in the money record overall, over the surface and at the distance.
#6 Snow Trouble (Zayas / Pletcher) is on the improve with the second highest last out speed number, a two race progression, and two peaking bullet workouts. This son of Tapit has already hit the board at Gulfstream Park West. Expect him to be forwardly placed ready to roll.

Breeder's Cup Championships 2015
Staying on at Keeneland, we take in the BC Filly and Mare Turf for our Stakes Saturday. Some of the best racing in the world will take place at that grand track in Lexington, Kentucky.
Keeneland Race 6 {Breeder's Cup Filly and Mare Turf~G1~1 3/16 mile~TURF~3 year-old Up~fillies/mares~Graded Stakes}
A field of ten of the best female Turfers will make their start over the Turf course rated as good. Some of the best trainers and jockey's in the world will guide their charges in this spectacular race. It could be run Euro style as there is limited speed with only four that like a pressing attack when racing. A strong quickening into the stretch should be expected. It should be a fantastic race on a beautiful day in Kentucky.
#3 Legatissimo [IRE] (Moore / Wachman) is one of two millionaires in the race. She has run exceeding well in Ireland and Great Britain in her last two, winning both. This gal has an 80% in the money record from ten starts. She loves the turf and does well over good going. This daughter of Danehill Dancer [IRE] should track the pace closely and spurt through into the stretch.
$1 WIN / $2 PLACE / $3 SHOW.
#12 Secret Gesture [GB] (Geroux / Beckett) was last seen at Arlington Park winning the Beverly D, but unfortunately disqualified to third. She holds the fourth highest last out speed number and has put in one peaking workout. This gal also has an 80% in the money record from fifteen starts. A daughter of Galileo [IRE], she should be forwardly placed ready to romp.
$1 PLACE / $2 SHOW.
#11 Stephanies Kitten (I Ortiz / C. Brown) should be in contention with the third highest last out speed number, a four race progression, and two stout workouts. This gal is one of the millionaires in the race. With a honest pace she should be able to track and close willingly. This daughter of Kitten's Joy has done very well at this particular distance securing a 83% in the money record from six tries. The "Kitten's" did very well on Day One of the BC Championships.
$1 SHOW.

#9 Miss France [IRE] (Dettori / Fabre) will be stretching out to this distance having run very well in France. She appears to be in good form with some of the best connections in the world. A daughter of Dansill [GB], she should be forwardly placed ready to strike.

Furlong Friday at Keeneland
Breeder's Cup begins. For Furlong Friday we take a look at a nice sprint in the second race of the 2015 Breeder's Cup Championship card.
Keeneland Race 2 {6 furlongs~3 year-old Up~fillies/mares~Allowance}
A very competitive field of nine will take to the dirt in this high level allowance race. There is an abundance of speed which might open it up for a gal that likes to come from off the pace. Speed numbers are extremely close. A few in here have had ample rest to make a good go of it. It should be a prelude to the exciting championship races later on the card.
#5 Titanium (Lanerie / Moquett) might have the advantage with her tracking running style. She holds the second highest last out speed number at a longer sprint. She does love the Keeneland track having hit the board in both of her starts here.
