2016 Breeders' Cup Classic
What is there not love about this sport? Two great horses dueling at the head of a good field. Two great jockeys showing us how it's done. The mountains in the back have always made it a beautiful contest.
Amazing!
Amazing!
2016 Sentient Jet Breeders' Cup Juvenile
Classic Empire runs a great race for the victory. The most impressive part of the race was the late stretch run. Classic Empire showed a great deal of stamina for the win. Julien R. Leparoux led the half brother of American Pharaoh to the win.

Veteran conditioner Christophe Clement is considered by many to be one of the best when money is on the line. To fellow trainers, he is widely respected for his horsemanship and keen eye for placement. To bettors, he is the rental car insurance of the exotics. He costs them extra and does not often represent any value, but they will be sorry if they do not use him. (Bloodhorse)
Breeders Cup Distaff: Songbird Loses to Beholder
Songbird finally showed that she's human...er, horse, last night in losing to Beholder. .
What a battle! Classic duel between two great jockeys, Mike Smith on Songbird and Gary Stevens on Beholder's last race...

In a race for the ages, the sport’s grand dame Beholder (Henny Hughes) just got her nose in front of the previously unbeaten sophomore star Songbird (Medaglia d’Oro) after a toe-to-toe, eye-to-eye stretch-long battle in the GI Longines Breeders’ Cup Distaff at Santa Anita Friday (TDN)
With a three-wide move in the final turn, Beholder looked undefeated Songbird in the eye and the rest of the field essentially disappeared as the gaze of an entire sport locked on the two champions. In a stretch run that will be remembered forever, it was the older, more experienced champion who edged the other by the slimmest of margins at Santa Anita Park in what was Beholder's final race.
