Gr.1 Breeders' Cup Dirt Mile (4:10 p.m.)
Watching Todd Pletcher's Gr.2 Godolphin mile winner Coal Front face the once Gr.1 Kentucky Derby (2019) favourite, Omaha Beach compete (finally!) will be a racegoers dream. Added to that will be Bob Baffert Improbable, who won the Gr.1 Los Alamitos Futurity but hasn't quite hit the high note since then.

Gr.1 Breeders' Cup Filly & Mare Turf (4:54 p.m.)

Sistercharlie seems to be the one for this race. Mrs. Sippy, for trainer Graham Motion, seems to be doing well while with Magical, being retired, O'Brien will look for his first Filly & Mare Turf with Fleeting. Godolphin's lightly raced, Castle Lady, who placed runner-up in the Gr.1 QEII Challenge Cup seems to be the wildcard in this mix.

This is one of those races where most of the field 'is capable of great things'. Will they deliver? That's another question. 

 

There are great expectations from Matera Sky, who was runner-up in the Gr.1 Golden Shaheen at Meydan. Formidable Imperial Hint is the fore-running favourite in this escapade. Can he once again show the form he displayed when he wore down Mitole and won the Vanderbilt (G1)? Mitole himself has turned into a formidable force, capable of stealing the show. While Engage and Shancelot have the ability to land in the trifecta to boot.

Circus Maximus has the greatest chance of romping to victory here. Group One winner Without Parole has been off his game since his Gr.1 St. James's Palace Stakes win at Royal Ascot. He will be looking to regain lost ground and fans. Geoff and Sandra Turnbull’s 6YO Gr.1 Queen Anne Stakes, earned an automatic berth into the Breeders’ Cup Mile in the process. The gelding, Lord Glitters has come a long way to fail the test. 

Chad C. Brown trained Uni is the wild card in this race. Keep watching this space.

Gr.1 Breeders' Cup Distaff (7 p.m.)
Gr.2 Zenyatta Stakes' winner Paradise Woods is the only real threat to Midnight Bisou who will be hoping to end an unbeaten season with a bid for the Horse of the Year award. Of course they will also have to tangle with a trio of Grade 1-winning 3-year-olds: Street Band, Dunbar Road and Serengeti Empress.

Gr.1 Breeders' Cup Turf (7:40 p.m.)
Gr.1 Arlington Million winner, Bricks and Mortar, another unbeaten (in 2019) Horse of the Year candidate is the real threat to the rest of the field. He will go the longest distance of his career in this 1 1/2-mile feature. Candidates from far have come to find success in this glorious venture. Trainer Aidan O'Brien, officially removed Anthony Van Dyck from Europe's most prestigious race, the Gr.1 Prix de l'Arc de Triomphe, in order to go postward in the 2019 Breeders' Cup Turf at Santa Anita Park. So really O'Brien is beyond keen to have his horse win this one.

The most awaited race of the day, is headlined by Bob Baffert trained-McKinzie as his favorite. While top east coast invaders as the Gr.1 Jockey Club Gold Cup 1-2 finishers Vino Rosso and Code of Honor are stuck side by side on the outside. Of the two, William Farish’s homebred colt Code of Honor is really the one to beat in this test of the best. He will be ridden for the eighth consecutive time by Hall of Fame jockey John Velazquez.Trainer Shug McGaughey said in an interview with Horseracingnation.com that he feels good about his chances of finally getting his Classic with Code of Honor. “There are two really major races in the United States that I haven’t won, the Preakness and the Breeders’ Cup Classic,” he said. “I’ve been close in both of them, so they’re both on my list. I hope that maybe this year we can get the one behind us.”
