What do you think about the Breeders’ Cup Turf Sprint Mr. Ductor?

Saturday Race 5: 5 Furlongs. (Turf) G1 Breeders’ Cup Turf Sprint

#4 Lieutenant Dan (6/1) – This is a tough race where you could make a case for any. Although The Ductor had no problem. He landed on this gelding, who is in great form leading into this spot. Not only is he 2/2 over this Del Mar turf course, he also has the early speed to put himself in a good position early. If that wasn’t enough, e draws a good post position and the cutting back in distance from a longer race down the hill. He’ll be able to carry his speed and hit the wire in front.

#7 Charmaine’s Mia (30/1) – Exiting the same race as Lieutenant Dan, this mare set ridiculous fractions for 6 1/2 furlongs. After setting that wicked pace, she rightfully faded late. Before that she was really good this spring, winning multiple graded stakes going one. Cutting back to 5 furlongs here, the Ductor thinks she is extremely dangerous with the early pace she possesses. Prat will put her in a good position like he always does and she has a big chance to make the Ductor’s Day.

#9 Kimari (6/1) – She’s the classiest runner of the bunch and the Ductor won’t get beat by her. She’s coming in off a long layoff, but she always fires. No matter what track or surface, she must be respected.

Saturday, November 7 – Race 5: 5½ Furlongs. (Turf) G1 Breeders’ Cup Turf Sprint

*#1 Big Runnuer (12/1) – Another race we don’t have to go far for the Conductor to get his key. There is not a lot a lot of early speed in here and he should be able to clear the field from the rail. He may be able to steal this open race gate to wire.

#2 Just Might (30/1) – He is the only horse that could make it tough on Big Runnuer early. He has early gas, but always seems to fade late.

#3 Imprimis (4/1) – He’s a good gelding, but he got a nice trip last time and doesn’t seem to get the job done against the toughest competition. At a short price, the Conductor is against him.

#4 Front Run the Fed (12/1) – This colt had a tougher trip than Imprimis and was right there. He’ll be a better price, but still isn’t one of the Conductor’s favorites.

#5 Wet Your Whistle (15/1) – He got an easy trip last time and has back class. Again, the Conductor doesn’t like his chances.

#6 Glass Slippers (12/1) – The Conductor doesn’t like the Euros in these sprints typically. He’s torn on this filly as this isn’t the strongest American contingent. She’s a fighter but he thinks this task is likely too much to ask.

#7 Leinster (4/1) – He loves Keeneland and won nicely last time with a perfect trip. He can absolutely win this race but he’s no standout. At a short price the Conductor doesn’t love him.

#8 Oleksandra (12/1) – If you want to watch a mare mow, watch her last race. She has a thunderous late kick. However, the Conductor thinks she’ll be more in the 5/1 race and will be up against it without a hot pace in front of her. The Ductor is leaning against.

#9 Into Mystic (12/1) – She ran too well to lose over this turf course last time without a perfect trip. The Conductor will absolutely use her again especially if she’s around that price.

*#10 Bombard (15/1)

This is the Conductor’s other favorite price in the race. He ran huge setting a hot pace last time and was just nailed at the wire. The shorter distance will help his chances and he has the early speed to put him in a good position early.

#11 Wildman Jack (15/1) – Since the Conductor likes Big Runnuer, he must like this boy. He ran a good 2nd last time with a troubled trip and ran a big race vs Grade 1 company on dirt two back. The concern is that he gets hung wide.

#12 Got Stormy (7/2) – This mare is all class, but the Conductor is against her as the likely favorite. She’ll have to drop to the back of the pack from this post and will have a lot to do to get to the wire first.

#13 Texas Wedge (20/1) – Peter Miller has dominated this race, which scares the Conductor. However, she’s a toss from this post.

#14 Extravagant Kid (15/1) – The Conductor doesn’t see how he can work out a trip from here either.
