2016 Breeders Cup Classic Betting Preview PT 1

After a very interesting summer in the American flat racing season it looks like the portrait for the de facto finale of the US racing season has still a few more twists and turns to take as the Breeders' Cup Classic begins to look like a much more fascinating race by the day. It's probably not a massive surprise to anybody that follows the American flat racing that world star California Chrome – looming large as the world's biggest earner in history – trades as high as a 6/4 ante post margin to win the big race at Santa Anita in November.

He earned his way there with a spectacular victory in the Pacific Classic at Del Mar, where he lined up againat a cadre of talented opposition including Dortmund, Hoppertunity and the top-ranked American dirt mare Beholder.

And, frankly, he made them all look pretty ordinairy that afternoon on the outskirts of San Diego.

Ever since California Chrome captured the big victory at Meydan in the Dubai World Cup this year, with preferred jockey Victor Espinoza in the irons, he has looked like the real deal against everybody he has faced and there is already talk of him racing on again next year to have another kick at the can in Dubai.

There is also every chance that he will go to the 2017 Pegasus World Cup, so it's not unplausible that he could amass $20,000,000 in earnings in his career on the track.

To those who are looking to get the better of him in the Breeders' Cup Classic, the choice contender appears to be Arrogate, who roared home in the Travers Stakes – emerging out of seemingly nowhere to stamp out the best three-year-old field the country could put together. And he set a new track record doing it.
