I’m hoping that Randy Moss is MCing the draw.

Joe Tessatore at the mic
He was introduced as “the voice of the Breeders’ Cup”. Eh, that might be an overstatement. Okay, no “might” about it.

Sarafina and Midday
go get it girls, take down the boys!
I think if Sarafina bounces back from that bad Arc..
she will be awfully tough to beat in the Turf.

Miss Match
Going to throw her in on my tickets, and might make a decent sized show bet on her to boot. She’s ran the last two against the boys and ran fine, and can definately cover the distance.
I haven't figured out what who I like in here...
although I really liked Royal Delta’s last work. Would love to get more than 5/2 on her. I don’t like that 2/1 on Plum Pretty.
