Star Tribune handicapper Johnny Love's Day 1 Breeders' Cup selections
BAST is a Bob Baffert runner with consecutive wins. Baddert seduces HOF rider John Velazquez to ride. Donna Velocce moves to the rail with blazing speed. SELFLESSLY has two races under her belt and won last time out. EIGHT RINGS and DENNIS’ Moment are the favorites. DAAHYEH and ALBIGNA are my top picks among the Europeans. The featured race of the day comes down to Eighth Rings and Dennis” Moment. California-based runners have won 6 out of 9 Juvenile at Santa Anita. The other logical contender is Dennis‘ Moment, who has been training like a rocket.
