2017 Breeders Cup Turf Sprint Betting Tips PT 1

There is a lot to like about the way that the Breeders’ Cup Turf is setting up this year for the horse racing world championships which are going to be held in Del Mar this time around. This type of race is always a fascinating run and the 5 furlong dash near the beach makes this likely to be one of the more memorable races of the Breeders’ Cup.

Keeping in mind that the turf races at the Breeders’ Cup tend to draw a lot of attention from talented European runners we now have a bit of a curveball happening with an accomplished Royal Ascot winner who is actually based in America headlining the race.

It’s not often that American horses are able to string together such impressive performances at Royal Ascot and you can bank on her being able to take a lot of money going forward. Adding in the fact that the betting favourite in the race is Lady Aurelia - a filly - definitely adds a really impressive amount of spice to a race that looks to be a popular betting option.

Right now there are plenty of bookmakers who are floating Lady Aurelia at a price of about 11/8 but you’ll find that there are a couple of them going as short as an even money price.

You have to assume that she will be trading at a price that’s even shorter once you actually get closer to the race. It’s also worth considering that she will likely be an extremely popular single in the multirace wagers that typically wind up being so popular during the Breeders’ Cup since there is simply so much betting volume happening.
