BREEDERS' CUP UPDATE 5

4:10;

More Than Real proved best in the Juvenile Fillies Turf. Heavy favorite Winter Memories did not get the best of trips, ending up second.

The next race is the Filly & Mare Sprint. Already we have seen a 10-1 upset and a 13-1 upset, which makes me wonder what kind of prices we might see in the even harder to decipher Filly & Mare Sprint.

Amazingly, Sara Louise, coming off of a third place finish in the Gallant Bloom Handicap, has opened as the 3-1 favorite. Champagne d'Oro is 7-2, while my pick Dubai Majesty is 18-1.

4:24;

It is now eleven minutes to post time. Sara Louise is still the favorite, although she has risen slightly to 7-2. Champagne d'Oro is the 9-2 second choice, with last year's winner Informed Decision 6-1.

Dubai Majesty has dropped to 11-1.

4:28;

Seven minutes to post and Sara Louise has continued to rise in price; she is now 4-1.

Moontune Missy at 50-1 is a bit surprising. She ran great in the Gallant Bloom Handicap, finishing second by a head, and was well clear of Sara Louise. Now, the latter is likely going to improve in her second start back, but still. . .
