Breeders' Cup 2013 Preview

Verry Good - Verrazano can land the Dirt Mile to start Breeders' Cup weekend with a bang
This weekend the 29th Breeders’ Cup world championships will take place at beautiful Santa Anita in California.

It’s a weekend of the year that I always truly look forward to and this year is no different, with numerous other countries and courses trying to emulate the model the meeting has been somewhat diluted in recent years, at least on these shores, but for me it is still the original and the best and no one but no one does this sort of thing better than the Americans.

There’s been some incredible races over the weekend in recent years and we could be set to usher some more great memories in to the annuls of history this coming Friday and Saturday.

With fourteen races over the two days there’s a lot to study going in to the weekend so for the purposes of this preview I’m going to stick to the races in which I have a strong ante-post conviction, however I will still take them in their running order over the two days.
