Unrivaled Belle pulled off a 7-1 upset in the Breeders' Cup Ladies' Classic, holding off the late runs of Blind Luck and Havre de Grace to win by two lengths.
Ridden by Kent Desormeaux, Unrivaled Belle raced close to the lead and got the jump on her younger rivals to win the biggest race of her career.
Life At Ten, the second choice, broke well but dropped back to last and showed no interest in running. She was eased and did not finish the race.
Blind Luck sat next to last early and made her strong late run, getting past Havre de Grace in the stretch but just simply couldn't catch the winner.
The final time was 1:50 flat. It's Tea Time finished fourth.
Unrivaled Belle's upset concluded a day of of upsets in the Breeders' Cup, with five of the six championship races being won in upset fashion.
