Breeders' Cup 2009: Turf

#, Horse, Trainer, Jockey, ML odds 1 Telling, Steve Hobby, J. Castellano, 20-1 Sword Dancer winner is competitive with American turf runners, if not often in the winner's circle. 2 Conduit (IRE), Sir Michael Stoute, R. Moore, 7/5 Wins almost every time he does not face Sea the Stars - a worthy returning champion. 3 Red Rocks (IRE), B.J. Meehan, J. Leparoux, 20-1 2007 winner of this race has struggled to find his best form this year. 4 Allegre, Brian Koriner, J. Velazquez, 50-1 Big step up in class; distance may also be a concern. 5 Dar Re Mi (GB), John Gosden, L. Dettori, 3-1 Second to Zarkava last year and beat Stacelita (let's be honest) - good result in the Arc (pictured). 6 Presious Passion, Mary Hartmann, E. Trujillo, 4-1 Best US-based chance in the race; always gives his all. 7 Spanish Moon, Sir Michael Stoute, K. Fallon, 5/2 Very solid European performer (although American by birth) is a strong threat here. 8 Monzante, Mike Mitchell, R. Bejarano, 30-1 Recent form does not suggest a huge threat here. Picks: Dar Re Mi, Conduit, Spanish Moon, Presious Passion
