California Chrome Betting Preview
In just about every Breeders Cup preview this year, California Chrome, the +115 favorite at Bookmaker and -110 elsewhere, has been selected as the horse to beat as he looks to go undefeated on the year or a perfect 7-0 this year.
"He only got beaten a neck, but he wasn't at his best mentally," trainer Art Sherman said of Chrome's previous Classic run. "He shipped around a lot that year and went through the Triple Crown races. There's such a difference between how he's coming into this year's Classic and then.
"Now he's got his game face on when he gets to the paddock. He's all business; he knows what he has to do. He brings his `A' game. Chrome is bigger and stronger than ever. The way he runs now, he's become a push button horse; he'll do whatever Victor asks of him," Sherman said.
Again, the best price available is +115 at Bookmaker.
Melatonin (12-1) Betting Preview
It’s impossible to overlook that Melatonin is four-for-four at Santa Anita where this year’s Breeders Cup Classic is being held.
Another really sick stat noted by the New York Times Saturday morning: Trainer David Hofmans has captured previous Breeders’ Cup races with horses with odds of 40-1 and 36-1
Arrogate (5-2)
He won the Travers by a whopping 13 ½ lengths and starts this Breeders Cup from the favorable outside post.
Frosted (5-1)
Put in a great effort winning the Met Mile and Whitney Stakes.
