Breeders' Cup

Arabian Knight is the early 3-1 favorite for the $6 million Breeders’ Cup Classic this weekend at Santa Anita. The two-day world championships drew 205 horses including 59 from five foreign countries to the track in Arcadia. Santa Anita is hosting for a record 11th time on the 40th anniversary of the event. Arabian Knight drew the No. 12 post in the 13-horse field for the 1 1/4-mile race. Belmont Stakes winner Arcangelo will break from the No. 1 post at early odds of 7-2. Friday will feature five races for 2-year-olds. Saturday's card includes nine races as Santa Anita hosts the world championships for a record 11th time.

Kentucky Derby winner Mage won't run in the $6 million Breeders' Cup Classic. The colt had yet to travel to California for the world championships next weekend at Santa Anita. His trainer, Gustavo Delgado, posted online that the colt had a temperature and a decreased appetite.

Unbeaten Flightline posted another dominating run, overtaking Life Is Good entering the top of the stretch and pulling away to an 8¼ -length victory in the $6 million Breeders’ Cup Classic at Keeneland, all but locking up honors as Horse of the Year.
