The Breeders Cup Is Coming And Thousands Of Racing Fans Are Turning To Thoroughbred Analytics
Online, November 4, 2011 (Newswire.com) - Louisville, KY (PRWeb)-Thoroughbredracing fans from around the world will be glued to their television sets on November 4-5 to watch the 28th Breeder's Cup World Championships from Churchill Downs in Louisville Ky. The Breeder's Cup, thoroughbred racing's most prestigious event, is made up of 15 races over a two day period with horses racing at distances ranging from five furlongs to a grueling 1 ¾ miles. Races are run on both the dirt and the turf with races for juveniles, fillies and mares, and mixed fields. The highlight of the event is the Breeder's Cup Classic with $5 million in prize money at stake and a terrific shot of the coveted Horse of the Year title.
Havre de Grace is poised to be the second female in history to win the Breeder's Cup Classic, but she must first out-run Uncle Mo who appears to be in top form after a spectacular wire-to-wire finish at the Kelso Handicap and an excellent one mile workout. One can't forget the come-from-behind specialist, Flat Out, who may be better suited for this distance than the rest of the field. The 70,000 spectators at Churchill Downs, as well as the millions watching the race on TV, will be hard pressed to accurately predict a winner in this outstanding field. Those using the thoroughbred handicapping software provided by Thoroughbred Analytics, however, will be at a competitive advantage. Their comprehensive horse racing stats, including extensive Breeders Cup past performances, coupled with their exclusive algorithms makes picking a winner from all the Breeders Cup selections, easier than ever before.
The Ladies' Classic will be no easier to predict. Havre de Grace is entering the Ladies' Classic as a backup in case she gets a poor post position in the Breeder's Cup Classic. She is expected to compete in the Classic, however, leaving Plum Pretty, It's Tricky and Royal Delta as the favorites in the Ladies' Classic. The accurate prediction of a winner in this race is difficult because no one filly of the three is better than the others. These three fillies have raced each other a number of times this year, and each filly has a victory over the other two. Once again, the handicapper with the best horse racing stats will be at an advantage. Thoroughbred Analytics' thoroughbred handicapping software will examine the stats of each of the Ladies' Breeders Cup selections, consult the data from Breeders Cup past performances and use its advanced algorithm to predict who will win the Breeder's Cup Ladies' Classic.
The Breeder's Cup Turf event is extremely difficult to predict. Due to injuries and other reasons, the 1 ½ mile turf event has a dwindling field with no clear favorites. The Breeder's Cup Sprint at six furlongs has a competitive field with no clear favorite as well. Big Drama has two wins in two starts. This front-runner has little experience but has performed well in good company. Trainer Bob Baffert can't seem to decide whether The Factor is a sprinter or a distance horse. He has won two seven-furlong sprints, but he became involved in a speed duel in his last distance race and finished poorly. Euroears won two of his three starts at six furlongs. His effort in his last race was affected by another horse who stumbled on the muddy track, and Euroears was unable to work his way to the front where he likes to run. The top three Breeders Cup selections in this race are confirmed front-runners, and at least one has shown the tendency to become involved in a speed duel, which opens up the door for someone to come from off the pace and steal the victory. One must be extremely careful when predicting a winner for this race. All the horse racing stats must be considered, as well as the Breeders Cup past performances. Software such as Thoroughbred Analytics' thoroughbred handicapping software will be particularly useful here.
Each race in this two day event is highly competitive and difficult to predict. The utmost care must be exercised, and all factors must be considered.
