Field Entry Favored at 9/5; Gomez is 4-1 Second Choice
ARCADIA, Calif. – Julien Leparoux and the all others Field entry have two wins apiece in the new Breeders' Cup Jockey Bet going into the Saturday program of the Breeders' Cup World Championships at Santa Anita Park.
The Breeders' Cup Jockey Bet is a win only wager, and is based solely on the results of the 14 Breeders' Cup World Championships races on Nov. 6-7. All bets were placed prior to Friday's first Breeders' Cup race, the Breeders' Cup Marathon. The all others Field entry closed as the 9/5 favorite followed by Garrett Gomez at 4.2-1, winner of yesterday's Breeders' Cup Ladies' Classic aboard Life is Sweet.
A total of $117,559 was wagered into the pool at Santa Anita and at the simulcast locations.
Leparoux, who closed in the Jockey Bet wagering at 5.6-1, yesterday captured both the Grey Goose Breeders' Cup Juvenile Fillies on She be Wild and the Sentient Jet Breeders' Cup Filly and Mare Sprint on Informed Decision. John Murtagh, at 13-1, won the Breeders' Cup Marathon on Man of Iron. The two All others Field winners were represented by Robby Albarado, who took the Breeders' Cup Juvenile Fillies Turf on Tapitsfly, and Tom Queally, who rode Midday (GB) to victory in the Emirates Airline Breeders' Cup Filly and Mare Turf.
