Breeders’ Cup Classic

By Adam Mills Clearly, we cannot expect this year’s race to be identical to the most recent renewals of the Classic, but the data on offer would suggest to me that the first 2-furlongs are the crucial part of the race and where the main players are when they reach the first turn will be […]
