Nick Tammaro on the Breeders Cup pace scenarios. Starting around the 19:00 mark.
Steve Asmussen, one of the winningest trainers of all time, is in a horrible slump. If you exclude horses he sends out at the minor tracks (Delta, Indiana, Remington, etc) and just focus on the big circuits (Kentucky and New York) where he's stabled, here's his record since the start of Keeneland, Oct 8:
79 horses
2 winners
One paid $6.20 and the other $3.20. So it may make one think twice about betting Jackie's Warrior at even money or less. No matter how good he looks on paper, something is wrong in that barn right now.

Hard to pass on the Breeders' Cup with large fields and massive pools.
I like the way organizers have featured the two-year-olds on Friday and the older stars on Saturday.
Now let's stick with the schedule to build tradition.
On Friday, there are five Breeders’ Cup races, all restricted to 2-year-olds.
On Saturday, there are nine, all for horses 3 and up.

Interestingly, horse is named after the Cal Bears, not the Chicago Bears.

Slump over? Asmussen with 2 wins from 3 starters today at Churchill......both were favored. He's "up" to 4 for last 83 now. And has the current 4/5 favorite in the next Breeders Cup race.
Pick 5 pool was in excess of $4.3 million.
Sheesh!
Sheesh!
And they're off...
#6 Echo Zulu goes wire-to-wire at odds of 4/5.
Order of finish: 6-5-4.
Final time was 1:42.24.
We can compare this time to the time of the Breeders' Cup Juvenile as a test of quality.

From last to first.
#1 Pizza Bianca is owned by Bobby Flay, trained by Christopher Clement and ridden by Jose Ortiz.
Clement is now 1-for-43 in Breeders' Cup action.
Winner closed at 9/1.

What Does Del Mar Do ?
Open The Gates For 2 Days, Then Put The Padlock Back On, Until Their Meet Starts Up Again ?
The $2 million Juvenile is next.

Corniche wins the Breeders' Cup Juvenile.
Baffert/Smith, the trainer-jockey combo.
That's 27 BC wins for Smith, he's the all-time leading BC jock in victories.
