Horse racing newsletter: Breeders’ Cup big day is here
Hello, my name is John Cherwa and welcome back to our horse racing newsletter as we get a handicapping lesson from Rob Henie and daily handicapper Bob Ike remains red-hot.
Today is the big day at the Breeders’ Cup with all the 2-year-old races out of the way. You can find the list of the races below with the favorite. As for the Classic, we look at the three Bob Baffert trainees and also some of the other stuff that has been swirling around the Hall of Fame trainer. Just click here.
So, let’s get right to Friday’s Breeders’ Cup races.
$1 million Juvenile Turf Sprint. There was never any doubt that Golden Pal would win this 5 ½-furlong turf race. Jockey Irad Ortiz Jr, hustled the colt out of the gate and went for the lead. But then he pulled the horse back to sit just off the leaders. When he needed to move on the turn, it was easy, taking a five-length lead. He cruised in the stretch to win by three-quarters of a length.
Golden Pal paid $3.60, $2.80 and $2.60. Cowan was second and Ubettabelieveit was third. Windy City Red, trained by Jonothan Wong, was 10th in the 14-horse field.
Wesley Ward (winning trainer): “He’s just amazing. I got a little worried on the backside. Irad [Ortiz Jr.] kind of lost a little momentum there and took a pretty good hold of him, but then he just accelerated down the lane. When he accelerated past the quarter-pole, I knew we were OK. I got a little worried on the last part and was hugging onto my son, but we got there. He’s a champion colt. … [Next year’s Breeders’ Cup at Del Mar] is where we’re heading, but first we’re going to Royal Ascot. Here we come. He’s going to get them this year!”
Irad Ortiz Jr. (winning jockey) “He’s a really nice horse. He did the hard job. I just sat in him waiting for the time to go. He ran great. He really has a lot of potential.”
$1 million Juvenile Turf. Longshot Fire At Will did just that by sitting off the lead in the one-mile turf race. When asked midstretch, he motored past leader Outadore to win by three lengths.
Fire At Will paid $62.40, $24.40 and $14.00. Favorite Battleround was second, and Outadore was third. Ebeko, trained by Peter Miller and ridden by Flavien Prat, was ninth in the 14-horse field.
Mike Maker (winning trainer): “I tell you we have been high on him since Day 1 and with each race he’s gotten better. It’s very satisfying to get Three Diamonds Farm their very first Breeders’ Cup win.”
Ricardo Santana Jr. (winning jockey): “I got a beautiful trip. I had plenty of horse in the tank. Thank God everything played out perfect. … He put me where he wanted to be and that’s why we won.”
$2 million Juvenile Fillies. All eyes were on the undefeated filly Princess Noor, but she came up empty and Vequist ran a smart rail-hugging race to win by two lengths. Dayoutoftheoffice went to the lead with Princess Noor running on the outside in this 1 1/16-mile race. But heading into the stretch, Princess Noor started to falter and Vequist moved side by side with the leader and eventually pulled away at the end.
Vequist paid $15.20, $6.80 and $4.40. Dayoutoftheoffice was second, followed by Girl Daddy, Simply Ravishing, Princess Noor, Crazy Beautiful and Thoughtfully.
Butch Reid (winning trainer): “My wife [Ginny] did a sensational job with her all week. She really thrived on this air and the weather. She looked great coming in. I knew we would be laying up close. She’s a sharp filly. She doesn’t mind the inside obviously. I don’t know that you ever have that kind of feeling, but we knew she was doing very well, and we know she’s a very talented filly.”
Joel Rosario (winning jockey): “I tried to save ground. It was hard for her in the turn because I had a horse outside me. But she did great. I never gave up my position. As soon as I asked her, she went on with it. It was a very good performance.”
$1 million Juvenile Fillies Turf. Favored Aunt Pearl went gate to wire to win the one-mile turf race by 2 ½ lengths. A couple of fillies tried to put themselves in a stalking position, but on the backstretch it seemed clear that it would take a super effort to beat Aunt Pearl. That performance never came.
Aunt Pearl paid $7.20, $5.40 and $3.80. Mother Earth was second, and Miss Amulet finished third.
Brad Cox (Winning trainer): “That was a devastating performance. She is an amazing filly. Very proud of her. Speed is her weapon and she knows how to use it. I was pretty confident [she would win] when I saw the :47 and [jockey Florent [Geroux] obviously knows her well.”
Florent Geroux (winning jockey): “I know she is extremely fast. I just tried to get away good. She was off to a flying start. She went pretty quick early on and after that I tried to get her to relax. On the backside she came back to me. When I asked her, she had plenty left. She’s extremely talented. I think the sky is the limit for her. Over the winter, hopefully she’ll grow a little bit and next year we can do it again.”
$2 million Juvenile. Jackie’s Warrior was the big favorite in this 1 1/16-mile race, but things didn’t go as planned.
Instead, it was another undefeated colt, Essential Quality, who won by three-quarters of a length. Essential Quality was content to be in the middle of the 14-horse race for the first three-quarters of a mile before making his move going four-wide into the stretch for the win.
Essential Quality paid $9.40, $6.20 and $4.40. Hot Rod Charlie, for trainer Doug O’Neill, was second and paid $51.60 and $4.40. Keepmeinmind was third, and Jackie’s Warrior finished fourth.
Brad Cox (winning trainer): “It was a tremendous effort by this horse. Luis [Saez] stayed after him the whole way. He overcame a lot. He’s a nice colt. Distance is no issue with him. He’ll run all day. I’m very proud of him and I’m so happy for the Godolphin organization. What a horse. At the three-eighths pole, Luis stayed after him pretty good and I was hoping he wouldn’t flatten out. But he stayed on. He’s a tremendous horse, has an amazing amount of stamina. We’re going to enjoy this one and obviously [the Kentucky Derby] will be our goal moving forward.”
Luis Saez (winning jockey): “I had a perfect trip, a beautiful trip. My horse broke so well. He was in the right spot. I knew there was going to be a lot of speed, so we were in the right spot. At the three-eighths he gave me that kick, so I knew we had a chance to win the race. He can run all day. He’s a nice horse.”

Del Mar review
The feature was the $150,000 Golden State Juvenile Fillies for Cal-breds going seven furlongs. September Secret came wide late and was part of a four-way picture for the win. September Secret paid $28.60, $12.40 and $6.60, with Dylans Wild Cat second and Eddie’s New Dream third.
Peter Miller (winning trainer by phone from Keeneland): “I watched the race from here. Once I quit cussing [jockey Ricardo Gonzalez], I started cheering him even though I didn’t know if he was going to get there. It was a roller coaster of emotion. She was much the best and he had a ton of horse but had trouble getting her out in the clear. Absolutely, it’s good to start the weekend with a stakes win. It’s the same owner (Tom Kagele) as C Z Rocket, [who runs in Saturday’s $2 million Breeders’ Cup Sprint], so maybe it’s a good omen.”
Ricardo Gonzalez (winning jockey): “This was the first time I rode her, but Peter told me to just let her break and get a good spot. She did and I was happy with what we were doing. Going into the turn, she was dragging me to the front, so I knew I was loaded. I was looking for a spot with her and finally went outside and she gave me her kick. I knew it was close there at the finish, but I was pretty sure we won it.”
Del Mar preview
Del Mar’s non-Breeders’ Cup card has no real firepower to it, but the fields are mostly full. There are eight races starting at 12:30 p.m. Half the races are on the turf. The feature is the same as Friday’s except not restricted to fillies. It’s the $150,000 Golden State Juvenile for 2-year-olds going seven furlongs. The favorite, at 5-2, is Good With People for trainer Peter Miller and jockey Ricardo Gonzalez. He is two for four and coming off a fourth in the Indian Summer at Keeneland. So, they thought enough of him to ship him east. The second favorite is Touchdown Brown at 7-2 for Rafael Becerra and Tiago Pereira. He won his first race and then posted a seventh, second and sixth, the latter in the American Pharoah at Santa Anita. Post is around 3:30 p.m.
Here are the field sizes, in order: 6, 7, 9, 9, 9, 9, 9, 9.
Bob Ike’s DM pick of the day
SIXTH RACE No. 1 Irish Heatwave (4-1)
Colt from the Doug O’Neill barn wheels back in two weeks but had no real chance last time when beaten less than two lengths by similar first-level allowance runners. Shortening up a furlong, ‘Heatwave sat behind the leaders from good inside spot but was blocked behind horses from the 1/4-pole to the wire while never getting a chance to show his best. He goes to apprentice rider Alexis Centeno, who must work out a trouble-free trip from the rail with the turf rails out 18 feet.
Friday’s results: Cherry City ($8.80) was sent hard early from the rail to make the lead inside, opened daylight on the turn, then held that advantage through the stretch to record a comfortable win. We stayed undefeated at the young meet, two of those wins with hot-riding Tyler Baze aboard.

Ciaran Thornton’s DM pick of the day
SEVENTH RACE: No. 5 Tacoflavoredkisses (8-1)
Tacoflavoredkisses won last out on the Golden Gate all-weather track going a mile in an impressive performance. After taking the lead in the stretch Taco fought back the late charge by a horse that was a next out winner in a stakes race. Trainer Simon Callaghan is 44% going from sprint to route to sprint like Saturday’s race. Mike Smith gets the ride today and he has an impressive 3-1-1 record from his last six starts. I like this 8-1 value today. Taco has the best “wet track” breeding of all the horses in the race, so with heavy rain expected should excel in the expected conditions.
Friday’s result: Love Wins matched the 3-2 favorite into the turn but had nothing in the tank and faded on a track that is favoring closers right now.

Chris Wade’s LA pick of the day
FOURTH RACE: No. 5 Dairy Kid (5-1)
She is a consistent competitor and should find a pace scenario in this race that tilts our opinion her way at a nice price. In her most recent outing 14 nights ago, this runner broke well but fell back some down the backstretch and then took up some in close quarters at the turn to lose some momentum. She had a decent trip from there, showing some late run to finish with a better-than-looked fourth-place finish. She’s facing a field that includes at least three rivals who figure to want the early lead, we’ll push this entrant to sit a nice fourth over the trip to the top of the stretch prior to showing her usual late kick, which should be enhanced with the blinkers off equipment change for a solid jockey/trainer combo. Could be the late running longshot nearing the wire.

REFI NOW broke in and bumped GHOSTER at the start, stalked just off the leader from outside, bid alongside rival at the quarter pole, took control in upper stretch and kicked clear. STONE'S RIVER stalked the pace inside, angled out into the three path on the turn, finished willingly through the final furlong but could not threaten the winner. GHOSTER bumped leaving the gate, set the pace up the backstretch, angled in on the turn, headed at the quarter pole, lost the lead in upper stretch, weakened and lasted for the show. CRASH CORRIGAN dwelt in the beginning and came away slowly, trailed the field up the backstretch, raced along the inside then moved out three wide, showed a late effort and missed the show. FLACTEM LEGACY stumbled leaving the gate, dropped back early, went three to four wide around the turn and had little left for the drive. FLASH OF GLORY tracked off the inside, three wide around the turn and faded. DEPUTY GARY broke out a bit at the start, traveled in the two path through the turn and proved no menace. THE STEWARDS REVIEWED THE START OF CRASH CORRIGAN AND RULED HE CAUSED HIS OWN PROBLEMS AT THE START AND IS CONSIDERED A STARTER. HAND-TIMED.

DONUT GIRL off a bit slow to begin, unhurried in the early going, raced two wide then angled in on the far turn, moved back out into the two path nearing the stretch, angled out in the lane, closed outside the leader and drew clear. NEW HEAT in range early from the two path, went three wide into the stretch, bid three wide in the drive, got outkicked by the winner and saved the place. KLEEN KARMA tracked the pace from inside, two wide into the stretch, angled out and put in a mild late bid but missed the place. CASSIE BELLE forwardly placed along the inside, saved ground into the lane, lacked room next to the fence and steadied briefly at the eighth pole, shifted out with a sixteenth to go and bumped rival and finished willingly. EMPRESS OF FIRE sped to the front, set the pace from inside, led clear to the eighth pole and yielded in the final sixteenth. ALMOST A FACTOR traveled at the back of the pack, raced outside a rival or three wide, angled out in upper stretch and finished evenly. SHERILINDA stalked the leader from outside, took aim two wide into the stretch but flattened in the final furlong.
