Breeders’ Cup Friday Results

BC Juvenile Turf Sprint

The overseas runners surprisingly dominated this five furlong turf dash. Big Evs (IRE) was all over the pace from post 4. It was actually Crimson Advocate on the lead from the inside post. The latter was fractious at the gate and was sent out of there through a blazing opening quarter in 20.71. She had to work too hard to maintain the lead. Meanwhile, Big Evs was just cruising along in a pressing position and he edged clear and held off Valiant Force to win by a half-length. Starlust was 3rd and beaten favorite No Nay Mets (IRE) completed the superfecta. They sped five panels in 55.31.

Breeders' Cup Friday 2023 International Horse Report

 

By Jarrod Horak

The BC Friday international horses should be competitive in the three turf races at Santa Anita Park on Nov. 3. I will go through and analyze all of the BC Friday international horses below.

BC Juvenile Turf Sprint

Tiger Belle (IRE) is 3-for-5 with a runner-up finish and all five races were at five panels on turf. Two of her wins were in Ireland. She shipped to France and captured a Group 3 on Aug. 31, and runner-up Dawn Charger won the Prix Eclipse (G3) on Sept. 16 and was 2nd in the Group 2 Criterium de Maisons Laffitte on Oct. 7. She is one of the more interesting BC Friday international horses. 

Big Evs (IRE) won a Group 3 race in Great Britain in August. He was nowhere in his next Group 1 start, and bounced back with a Group 2 score at Doncaster on Sept. 15. His overseas turf sprint form is not bad, and if an invader fires in this spot, he might be the one. 

Givemethebeatboys (IRE) was an early bloomer in Ireland with back-to-back turf sprint wins in May including a Group 3 score at the Curragh. He was 4th, 3rd, and 4th in his last three turf sprint stakes starts and others seem more appealing.
