It doesn’t get better than this in the world of horse racing. Aside from the Triple Crown, the Breeders Cup and its suite of races are arguably the most exciting and meaningful thoroughbred contests of the year. It is when we get to see the stars of tomorrow running in the Juvenile races, and when we get to see older superstar horses at the peak of their careers.

The 2011 Breeders’ Cup this weekend at Churchill Downs in Kentucky should be no exception to the rule as several thrilling races will provide great drama. Always a favorite on the first day of the Breeders' Cup is the Breeders' Cup Ladies' Classic which showcases some of the best female horses on the planet. This year’s event has some heavy favorites but with super filly Havre de Grace now running in Saturday’s Breeders’ Cup Classic the playing field is a little more level.
Plum Pretty - This is clearly the race favorite with odds of about 2-1 at the moment. Coming off a win in her last race at the Grade 2 Fitz Dixon Cotillion, Plum Pretty also won this year’s Grade 1 Kentucky Oaks and is the horse to beat. By all accounts her race prep has her in good form and trainer Bob Baffert knows a thing or two about winning races.
Royal Delta - This is a powerful horse which has been said to have had stellar workouts this week. She was second in her last start to the very talented Havre de Grace in the Grade 1 Beldame and took first in her previous start in the Grade 1 Alabama Stakes. Expect her to challenge Plum Pretty all the way and at odds of about 5-2 is certainly a good bet.
It’s Tricky - With odds of about 5-1 currently this filly of Godolphin Stables has every right to be considered a serious contender in the 2011 Breeders’ Cup Ladies' Classic. Runner up to Plum Pretty at the Grade 2 Fitz Dixon Cotillion in her last race, and runner up to Royal Delta in the Grade 1 Alabama stakes, It’s Tricky is a perennial contender. She also has two Grade 1 victories this year at the Acorn Stakes and the Coaching Club American Oaks. Given her record and her slightly longer odds, It’s Tricky might be the value bet for this race.
