Saturday, Nov. 5 (all post time EDT)
The official race order for the Breeders’ Cup World Championships at Churchill Downs indicates some changes from the tentative order released several weeks ago.

Glad to see they were/are willing to make moves like this. The Turf could be a smallish field again, and sort of a let down pre-Classic... but not anymore.

I'd move it up more to get more people involved earlier in the card. When Goldlikova runs, people are going to pay attention.

I think they should run the races in alphabetical order.
$5 million Breeders’ Cup Classic (gr. I) $1 million Breeders’ Cup Dirt Mile (gr. I) $2 million Breeders’ Cup Juvenile (gr. I) $1 million Breeders’ Cup Juvenile Turf (gr. IIT) $500,000 Breeders’ Cup Marathon (gr. II) $2 million TVG Breeders’ Cup Mile (gr. IT) $1.5 million Breeders’ Cup Sprint (gr. I) $3 million Breeders’ Cup Turf (gr. IT) $1 million Breeders’ Cup Turf Sprint (gr. IT) This makes way more sense to me and is much more attractive to both casual fans and serious bettors.

Hopefully the Pk-3 with ALL/Goldikova/Uncle Mo/ will pay what the similar combo paid last year, though that is unlikely. I think it was an $80 horse followed those two last year. My dad had it.
