Breeders Cup Preview

The Breeders Cup betting lines are quickly coming to a close, as later next week, the 27^th annual Breeders Cup will be held next Friday. Yesterday it was announced, that over 193 horses had already pre-registered for the two day 15 race event. One horse that will be wagered heavily using bookie software, is the legendary filly Goldikova. Goldikova is the only horse in the Breeders Cup 27 year history to win on three separate occasions. Can next Friday at the Breeders Cup Mile be the fourth consecutive win for Goldikova? Here is an NHL preview of the race.

Originally based out of Paris, France Goldikova will be attempting to win her fourth consecutive Breeders Cup Mile on Friday November 4, 11. In the past three years, Goldikova has continuously been able to beat out her previous years fastest time. This in turn, has left fans and analysts alike pondering, why Goldikova owners would keep her in the same race annually, rather then move her up to tougher competition. On paper, by all accounts, last year she should have entered the Breeders Cup Classic to run against the greatest horse in American horse racing history, Zenyatta. However, as we indicated earlier, Goldikova instead raced and won at the Breeders Cup Mile.

Goldikova like the aforementioned Zenyatta has experienced much success over her career. In 26 career starts, Goldikova has won 17 of them, 14 of which were Grade I stakes races. Three of those 14 wins we already eluded too, as Breeders Cup victories. Now for the casual horse racing fans, it should be noted, that Goldikova is on an uncontested path to the horse racing hall of fame. She is the only horse who has won three Breeders Cups in a row. By winning four, she could entrench her name beside some of the greatest colts in the industry.
