Breeders' Cup Undercard Odds and Picks: Dirt Mile, Distaff, Sprint & More

Breeders' Cup takes place every year. The Classic is a terrific race led by Improbable, Tiz the Law and Maximum Security. Distaff has attracted Preakness Stakes winner Swiss Skydiver and Monomoy Girl.

The Breeders Cup Distaff is a mile and a half long on the main track. Post time is 3:54 pm EST. It will be televised by NBC. All Breeder's Cup races are on either NBC or NBC Sports Network.

Monomoy Girl won the event in 2018 and missed all of 2019 with an injury. Swiss Skydiver is facing older horses for the first time but beat boys last time out in the Preakness Stakes. She has won five races of 2020 and pocketed $1.7 million.

Harvest Moon is a longshot, but she has won four straight races. Dunbar Road is the favorite. Horologist won easily at +710 last time out. Valiance is an interesting candidate for trainer Todd Pletcher. She has six wins in eight career starts. Five of her first six races were on turf. She held off Ollie’s Candy in her last two races on dirt.

Last year Blue Prize scored at +890 in a field that Midnight Bisou looked like she was going to be hard to beat. Monomoy Girl has been nearly perfect and Swiss Skydiver has had an amazing 2020.

Gamine finished third in the Kentucky Oaks. She has four wins in five starts. Serengeti Empress finished 3rd in last year's Distaff. Gamine and SerendetI Empress could go head-to-head.

Imprimis, Got Stormy and Leinster are the top choices in the Breeders' Cup Undercard. Glass Slippers has just one victory this year, but has been facing top competition.

Complexity is the favorite in Dirt Mile. Art Collector has won five of his last six races. Knicks Go is running well but stepping up in class. Mr. Freeze, War of Will, and Owendale are not exciting.

Rushing Fall is the best of the American girls going a mile and three-sixteenths on the turf. She's won a grade one race in four straight years and earned a Breeders Cup victory in 2017. The invaders include Irish breds Peaceful and Cayenne Pepper and French filly Audarya.

Yaupon is four-for-four in his career. CZ Rocket has won five straight. Vekoma has taken three straight including back-to-back grade one victories. Frank's Rockette has never finished worse than second in 10 career starts.

Uni beat the boys in the race last year. Circus Maximus finished fourth behind Uni last time. Kameko is coming off of a victory in Great Britain. Siskin has five wins in seven lifetime starts. Safe Voyage has run tight against One Master routinely.

Arklow and United are the top American options in this race. Magical, Tarnawa, Lord North and Mogul are imports. Arklow was eighth in the race last year and has only one win of 2020.
