Default Breeders' Cup Sprint

I'm having to write a preview of the Breeders' Cup meeting and, given that my knowledge of US racing is, at present, negligible, I would greatly appreciate some help with regard the Sprint.
I've been watching some of the races on Youtube, and was impressed with the way In Summation shaped in the Bing Crosby but, on the back of that, I guess he's been a mite disappointing since. I guess we're looking for a closer, so would Abraaj perhaps get the thing run to suit? Any views on Midnight Lute's well being?

In the Turf I thought Grand Couturier looked good last time and, together with Eagle Mountain, felt he probably had a good chance against a bunch of Europeans who are likely to be over the top.

For the Classic Curlin looks to represent poor value and thought there was some sense in taking him on with Casino Drive and Well Armed.

Any views welcome on these races and any other. Thanks!

Harry.
