Time for the annual @BreedersCup charity head to head bets, with the loser donating $50 to any of @NYRTCA @bcca @BackstretchTEAM @Oldfriendsfarm or @trfinc. I'll make up to 10 bets. Propose a heads up matchup and I 'll let you know if we have a bet.
I see a lot of complaints about the BC waiting until 5pm for the Draw. While I tend to agree, I find it particularly funny that, given how much they cater to the Euros (how is the 2YO Turf Sprint 75% Euros?), it's particularly odd to draw at 11pm over there:-)

Excited to be at Keeneland for the Breeders’ Cup Notes Team! It’s wonderful to be back 💜 #BC26
Planning on doing a Spaces here next Wednesday, 10/28, covering all the @BreedersCup races with @Jaxmuniz_ and @kaitlinebenson. Probably 8pm ET.
For Saturday 10/17, races 2,4,7 are off the turf and moved to Tapeta. The 7th will be a 9.5 F. The 5th and 10th remain on the grass
Somehow, in this wild P6 sequence, the 5,9, and 10 are covered. The P5 to the 5 is paying roughly 4x as much, with the 9 and 10 paying marginally less, despite the first winner paying 6:1. Lots of randomness there. Carryover of $113K if anyone else wins.
Saw the Social Reckoning today and loved it. There is also a throw away line that is an homage to West Wing that I particularly enjoyed
Another stellar handicapping day for my man @Jaxmuniz_ including Three Thirteen, who he was all over at just under 8:1.
Seemed like the rail was bad on the Main Track at Belmont today but the 9th race gives some cause for pause.

I'm perplexed as to why so many people seem to be saying the Main Track at Belmont has been speed favoring over the ten days of racing so far. No doubt 9/24, and to a lesser extent 9/25, were biased towards speed, however it simply has not been the case on the other days.
Agree or disagree, here are my Track Trends so far this meet...nyra.com/belmont/racing/trac…
