Unbeaten Flightline runs away to Breeders' Cup Classic win

Flightline wins Breeders' Cup Classic by 8 lengths. The unbeaten colt is the favorite. Olympiad finishes second, while Life Is Good finishes fifth. Epicenter finishes third. Bob Baffert's Taiba finishes fourth. The horse was pulled up by jockey Joel Rosario on the backstretch. He was suspended for 90 days earlier this year after a failed postrace drug test. It was the first race since the disqualification of Medina Spirit. His trainer, Sadler, compares him to Secretariat.
