2010 Breeders' Cup Classic - Contenders are headed by the greatest horse on the planet, Zenyatta who is hoping to win her 20th race in a row. Behind her is the 2013 Preakness Stakes Champion Lookin' at Lucky. His past two races were wins at the Indiana Derby and the Haskell Invitational however he was sick in August and missed some training time. Richards' Kid has been withdrawn from the race in order to go to Dubai for the remainder of the season. This isn't to say that Zenyatta wont be tested. It is expected that Provisio, the Usual Q.T., Blame, Espoir City from Japan and the lightning fast Sidney's Candy will fill up the majority of the heat making for a plenty of competition for the undefeated Mare.
2010 Breeders' Cup Mile - Leading the pack will be Goldikova. She already has two Mile Championships and is looking to make it a three-peat but this year the Mile will have some consistent competition that is peaking at the right time. Gio Ponti had a fantastic race at the Shadwell Turf Mile winning by one length. Provisio also quietly picked up her fourth straight G1 win and is expected to race in the Mile due to the familiar racing distance which she has recently had 3 of those wins. Poet's Voice is out of the Mile so next in line is Paco who has come up short vs Goldikova. Over his past three races vs the reigning Mile Champion, he has lost by a half-length, finished in third and was behind by a neck and then got beaten out for the win by a neck. Should the trainers of Sidney's Candy pull off a miracle and have him in proper form to compete, his lightning speed could match up very well.
