BREEDERS' CUP UPDATE SATURDAY #6

4:00;

Goldikova provided one of the most astonishing performances in the history of the Breeders' Cup Mile when she rallied strongly on the outside to win her third consectutive Breeders' Cup Mile in easy fashion.

Words cannot describe her performance, so I won't even try. It was simply one of the most amazing races I have ever watched. Thank you Goldikova!

The next race is the Breeders' Cup Dirt Mile. At the moment, Here Comes Ben is the mild 2-1 favorite. Tizway is 3-1. Vineyard Haven is the third choice at 8-1, and several others horses are 9-1. Surprisingly, the third longest shot on the board at 27-1 is Mad Flatter, despite the fact that he just turned in a career best performance at this distance last time out!

4:10;

Nine minutes to post now for the Dirt Mile. The morning line favorite, Morning Line, is currently 9-1. The post parade has begun!

Mine That Bird is currently 12-1.

4:15;

Morning Line just started to run off with his jockey. Fortunately, the jockey and an outrider were able to get him under control. I didn't see what upset Morning Line, but this certainly doesn't help his chances.

Three minutes to post now! Here Comes Ben has risen just a tad to 5-2. I'll be back with the results shortly!
