Flintshire remains the slim betting choice for most in this race and that’s interesting because he disappointed last time out after putting in a pretty solid series of runs over the past two years. 

The Judcdmonte-Owned colt has flourished in the United States and he is trading as the co-favourite with Highland Reel, though it must be mentioned that some bookmakers are pricing Flintshire below his Aidan O’Brien-trained counterpart as we get closer to the race itself. 

Flintshire is anywhere from an 11/8 margin all the way up to a 2/1 price tag for the Breeders’ Cup Turf and it’s going to be fascinating to see how the odds shift around during the build-up. There is still plenty of time between now and the November 5th race to see some very significant happenings in the betting market (there are always a few late withdrawals) and the draw for starting posts can always complicate matters for a few runners as well. 

Highland Reel has been running all over the globe and has looked good picking up efforts everywhere from stateside to Hong Kong. You can expect him to put in a real solid shift here and his best price of 11/4 could probably be pretty comparable to what he will be trading at on the day as the betting volume pours in.
