Pre-entered fields for the 2022 Breeders' Cup World Championships will be announced live on FanDuel TV along with the Breeders' Cup website, Official Mobile App, Facebook, Twitter, and YouTube channels on Wednesday, Oct. 26 at noon ET.
I've found it easier to tear up tickets at 8/1 instead of 8/5.

Insane Crazy and I ran a BC Pool contest a few years back, but it was a LOT of work. I could maybe run a pared-down version of it, maximum two picks per race? Idk, need to see the entries and I'm happy to hear other ideas.

Well, someone’s gotta finish 6th.
I’m seeing comments on articles saying that he could benefit from a pace meltdown between Flightline and Life is Good but like… Flightline doesnt need the lead? In my amateur internet horse racing fan crystal ball, I see Life is Good on the lead and Flightline just off of him until the far turn, then the jets are turned on and he coasts by. I just would be really really really surprised if they sent him to the front.
Hopefully Richard Dawson is in the paddock beforehand to examine everyone else’s shoes.

Flightline has gotten a bit strong behind horses in the past, and there's a huge difference between rating off of cheap speed vs rating off of quality speed. There's potential for a very quick pace, and I'm glad Rich Strike's connections are opting for it- good 3yos should run against elders, and he's clearly competitive against his elders. And wouldn't it be quite the story if he upset another big race?
I'd be glad to work with you! How about let's touch base after the pre-entries.Squeaky wrote: ↑Fri Oct 21, 2022 7:22 pmTessa I would be happy to help you.

last year my mom and i played a "name the full order of finish" game. it's a cool idea to do by yourself maybe as with too many people it would be nearly impossible to keep track of points. maybe top 2 or 3 finishers? either way i'm in!

I’m guessing the Euros will be doing a rain dance. I don’t think they want it soft or yielding, but some give in the ground.stark wrote: ↑Wed Oct 26, 2022 6:39 pm FWIW....

Surprised to see O Besos (Orb) pre-entered in the Sprint. Doesn't have a bad 2022 record though!
