all in Breeders' Cup

For the ninth year in a row, America’s Best Racing is challenging some of the brightest minds in horse betting to come up with their top three picks for key races every weekend leading up to the 2025 Triple Crown and then continuing through the 2025 Breeders’ Cup World Championships. The handicappers face off in what we like to call the “Big-Race Showdown.”

Saturday’s Bing Crosby Stakes at Del Mar has a superfecta of meaning for its starters: a $400,000 purse, a free Win and You’re In spot in the Cygames Breeders’ Cup Sprint to the victor, a Grade 1 win and an important race over the track in advance of the World Championships at Del Mar. A field of nine accomplished sprinters are entered in this year’s test.

There was excitement and uncertainty entering the inaugural Breeders’ Cup in 1984, but the initial championship had exceeded the hype even before it came to an unforgettable conclusion when three tenacious racehorses rumbled toward the Breeders’ Cup Classic finish line unwilling to give an inch.

The upcoming weekend is highlighted by big races on both coasts, as Saratoga Race Course and Del Mar are now both in full swing with their summer meets.

Can Journalism win the 2025 Longines Breeders’ Cup Classic Nov. 1 at Del Mar? Of course. Will he reign supreme against older males this fall? I think he has his work cut out for him.
