Breeders Cup Friday 990/1 E/W Lucky15 - The Winners Enclosure

The first race covered on Friday is the Breeders' Cup Juvenile Turf Sprint and we are siding with Averly Jane. Wesley Ward, who has an excellent record in this race, is renowned for training high class sprinters and this daughter of Midshipman looks yet another off the conveyor belt of talent.

She is unbeaten in four career starts to date, showing blistering speed in the process, and her victory over stablemate Kaufymaker at Keeneland the last time looks decent form.

Tyler Gaffalione will be hoping to make every yard and given her sharpness from the gate stall eight should pose no issues.

At a bigger price, stablemate Consumer Spending looks likely to go close under in-form pilot Flavien Prat.

Things didn’t go smoothly for this filly last time out with her meeting some trouble as she moved through the field however she still managed to produce an electric turn of foot to burst away from her rivals before being eased down in the closing stages.

That performance entitles her to plenty of respect in Graded company and she shouldn't be dismissed.

We are relying on the Champagne Stakes form in the Breeders' Cup Juvenile but not with market leader Jack Christopher.

Chad Brown's charge is the most likely winner however stall 1 could prove tricky if he wasn’t to break sharply and Todd Pletcher’s Commandperformance looks a solid each-way bet.

This son of Union Rags was finishing best when second to today’s rival that day and we may see them get closer over this extra yardage.He knows how to pass horses and there is a chance the front end will fold.

The final race carrying us into early Saturday morning is the Breeders’ Cup Juvenile Turf and we feel the Europeans will get off the mark heading into the weekend.

Modern Games, a nicely bred son of Dubawi, has been progressing race by race for Charlie Appleby and his victory in the Tattersalls Stakes at Newmarket last time out is a useful piece of form.

Andre Fabre’s horse in second that day had previously finished closer to Perfect Power, a horse many regard as the best juvenile in Europe, and Modern Games dealt with him much a little more ease.

A nice position on the front end can be crucial over 1m at Del Mar therefore Buick will be hoping to break sharply from stall 1 and gain a crucial advantage.
