Derby Trail Forums - Seattles Breeders Cup Picks for Friday

BC Marathon

Bright Horizon my top selection. Just came off a win at the Curragh going two furlongs easily. First time lasix should be laying third most of the way.

others I will use in pk 3s
Alcomo if Bright Horizon doesnt fire Alcomo will be right there stalk and pounce. Has gotten a nice 3 month rest since the PARX race

Au Miner, I know closers rarely win a race like this, but if I want a horse flying in the end he is it.

BC Juvy Turf Fillies

Together--my top selection, im going with another Obrien horse here, because she has faced better horses. Timeform for her races have been oustanding. Her race at Ascot was all i needed to pick her for this race back then.

others i will use
tale untold--horse could be due for a breakout race here and was ahead of together in one of their races
winter memories--nothing to knock, if shes running late she wins.
Allure D amour---been watching this one before she even ran, first race should of won, 2nd race showed her stuff, now in her third start should expect her best performance as she is a very talented filly

BC FNM Sprint

Sara Louise---will be my top pick. Didnt run that bad at Belmont. Just love her racing style should be mid pack then burst on through in the stretch.

Others I will use

Evening Jewel--see her just laying off Rightly So and hopefully when that one stops. She will be first to run away from them. She has ran great races vs Blind Luck. Class and Speed
Switch---2nd to Zenyatta was an amazing run, another one who will just sit off and run hopefully. 7f im hoping is enough.

BC Juvy Fillies

Tell a Kelly is my top selection--running on the Churchill stretch with her late kick. Forget about it, shes long gone

others i will use

Joyful Victory--needed that 2nd race, plus running in her 3rd start after a race like that, huge improvement off that race imo
Rheatlightning--Didnt think she would lose in her last race, but heres thinking she to will also improve off the race. Should get first run on everyone and hopefully won get run down by Tell a Kelly

BC Filly and Mare Turf

Top Selection--Midday nothing needs to be said. I thought about singling here but if shes off a bit this day I wanna get paid

Others I will use

Plumania--Was running lights out til she only lost 3/4s to Midday. Only concern is that she really sucked in the Arc and if it knocked her out some

Red Desire--working lights out since her "prep" race at Belmont. Should be running on late with Midday in a exciting stretch run

Harmonious--is getting better and skies the limit with her. QE Cup run was WOW, only 3 and has the most upside along with all the more reason to get better.

Shared Account--have always liked her, probably could lead them all around or if not stalk and who knows. She gets away KACHING!

Classic--
Unrivaled belle is my top pick--Just have a feeling she will finally breakthrough here laying close and fend off any closers.

others i will use

Blind Luck---runs everytime and runs hard in the end. The best horse in the field

Seeking the title--if BL doesnt run on late im hoping this one does
