Early Breeders' Cup Projections...

I respect that, but I still am sticking with the feeling that the F&M Turf field will be less quality all the way through than the Mile field....we'll see....it IS boys instead of girls in the Mile.....I'd rather face girls ALL DAY than the best male Milers in the world, regardless of Ouija Board being in the F&M Turf...she is only 1 horse....

i belive librettist will also be in the mile.
and don't forget angara for the f+m turf either. altho i think at this point they're all a slight step behind ouija board.

Aside from what is coming over from Europe, which at this point no one knows for sure, she really just has to deal with Aragorn, and maybe Miesque's Approval in the mile , although I think that one will be in way over his head.

There is talk of the Mile for What A While as well.....

The Yellow Ribbon...right?

Isn't the Matriarch part of the Hollywood Turf Festival on Thanksgiving weekend?

I know this is kind of pointless b/c nothing starts until post position are drawn, but its fun anyway.

BCJF-
Point Ashley-easiest call of the day probably.

BCJ-
Circular Quay-undefeated, likes CD, will only want more ground

BCS-
Songster-Im not going all chalk

BCD-
Oonagh Maccool-see above statement, and besides, I think she is the best dirt female on the planet when right.

BCFMT-
Alexandrova-2nd easiest call of the day.

BCM-
Librettist-I cant find anything wrong with him.
can you?

BCT-
Deep Impact-if he runs, he wins. I honestly have no idea if its even a consideration for them. Im sure a lot of you can give me more info on this.
Hes the best middle distance horse on the turf I have seen this year, and its not even close.

If he does not run, then whatever Coolmore runs will win. English Channel is the best US based hope. He has already won a G1 at this track this year.

BCC-
Bernardini-total freak.
If Godolphin decides not to run him(for whatever reason), then I think David Junior stands an excellent chance here.

Pent, I think I've read that Deep Impact's connections have zero interest in the Breeders Cup.

figured that was the case.
the Arc and then the Japan Cup?

seems to make the most sense.

Yep that seems to be the plan. I really wish they'd reconsider though because I'd love to see him in the BC. Looking forward to a great Arc though with him squaring off versus Hurricane Run, Shirocco, et al
