Early Breeders' Cup Projections...

[blackthroatedwind]

Please, I have made more public bold predictions than anyone around here, and I have the Dunce Cap to prove it!

Making predictions concerning the 2YOs seems absurd at this point as there are still many important races to be run and fewer that have already been run. I do have to admit I was very impressed by what I saw from Nobiz Like Shobiz however.

I honestly don't pay a huge amount of attention to the BC, especially this early, so my " bold predictions " would be too close to " stabs " for my liking.

However, to be nice, I will take....Commentator in the Sprint, some Euro in the mile or Aragon ( is that his name? ), Hurricane Run in the Turf and Bernardini in the Classic. I already gave my Distaff thoughts and at this point I would prefer one of the 3YO fillies, Lady of Venice or Wait it Out, in the F&M Turf.

I will probably end up betting against them all

Shirocco would get DROWN in the Classic and I think Fabre will come to that realization because he is a rational person

ARCANGUES!

I imagine that Europe will send a weaker squad than usual. Whilst I would love to see Sander Camillo in the BCJF, as I believe she may be the best 2yo filly I've ever seen, I very much doubt she'll make the trip. We don't seem to have a standout juvenile colt, with Teofilo certain not to cross the Atlantic. It goes without saying that we've not got a sprinter within 10lbs of the US finest, although the one who possibly could make an impact, Iffraaj, I'd rather see in the Mile. That may mean taking on George Washington, however, and that may make for race of the day. I imagine Ouija Board would have every chance of regaining her BCFMT crown. I would look to oppose Hurricane Run in the Turf, but, as of yet, I'm not sure what with!
