Breeder's Cup Picks

Juvie Fillies
Knights Templar - Yes she's a half to my filly, and that gives me an excuse to single a longshot in my early pick 4, but I don't care for Adieu or Folklore in this race, especially at the short price they'll each be. If I went one more deep, I'd take the Belmont proven Sensation.

Juvie boys
I like Henny Hughes, and my wise guy play is Superfly. First Samurai is a toss. Crawled home in the Champaign, and Henny had Stevens sending her hard. Regardless, you can't take short price with 2yo's....they're just to fluid when developing at this age.

Filly & Mare Turf
Karen's Caper - I'm all over her at the ML of 15-1 and higher, and I think she'll be higher. She had her stateside prep, has loads of talent, and the off going will be no problem. I'm adding Wend in my Pick whatevers. Ouija Board is capable of repeating, but the odds keep off most of my multi race tix. I love superstar Megahertz and she proved she can handle shipping and an off course in Chicago, but this is the type of company she hasn't been able to run with.

Sprint
I'm singling LITF, like the rest of the free world. The only non-multi race bet I'll make in this race is maybe Lifestyle and/or Attila's Storm to show. God forbid Foggy finishes off the board, these lads have every right to pay my next credit card bill with a show bet.

Mile
Leroidesanimaux is going to be tough to beat, and I can't leave him off the Pick 3/4/6. At least one pick whatever will include Valixir & Majors Cast, and these two will comprise my exacta.

Distaff
Stellar Jayne. It's the tactical speed. She's like a kinky girlfriend--you can do anything with her. On the lead, off the pace, up the rail, out wide. I'll also incorporate the young and improving Sweet Symphony. There's all kinds of value here.

Turf
Tough race. I'm taking imports Shirocco and Azamour, in that order. Gun Salute and Fourty Niner's Son rounds out my super.

Classic
Rock Hard Ten scratched which greatly decreases the value of the race from a sporting perspective, but from a betting standpoint, it saves me money. Single Borrego in the P6, and add Sauve on the wider tix.
