Recalling Thunderstorm: Best 5 From The Last Year’s Breeders Cup

Good news for the horse lovers from all over the world- Breeders Cup is back. This year Breeders Cup will shine between 2nd and 3rd November from the Churchill Downs, Kentucky, Louisville. The world is looking forward for the finest Thoroughbred out of various muscles chasing each other to get the crown. Breeders cup with $30 million in its pocket is marked for the 14 World Championship races.

Here is the list of top races with the champions who run like a big barrel of belief in front of the theit believers and haters:

1). Classic 2017:

Hall of Fame- Gun Runner

Trainer Steven M Asmussen can’t believe his eyes after watching Gun Runner defeating chasers by 2 ¼ length distance. This day of joy was heaven for the people keeping their eye on Gun Runner for $6 million Grade 1 Classic at Del Mar. This strong muscle has earned $15,988,500 with 12 winnings out of 19 starts in all his lifetime career. Gun Runner is also considered as the Expert Picks for this year’s championship due to its unstoppable speed.

2). Filly and Mare Sprint 2017:

Hall of Fame: Bar of Gold

Chester’s Bar of Gold shocked the audience at Del Mar with its outstanding performance giving the second biggest winning price in Breeder’s Cup history last year after the Arcangues in 1993. Trainer John C Kimmel was the man behind the curtains who influenced this five year old muscle that covered seven furlongs in just 1.22.63.

3). Juvenile Fillies Turf 2017:

Hall of Fame: Rushing Fall

The 10th running of the Breeder’s Cup Juvenile Fillies Turf is marked for the two years old Rushing Fall trained by Chad Brown. This outstanding performer has a very good track record with 6 winnings out of 7 starts earning total $1,308,000. The year 2018 was very lucky for this finest muscle where he achieved 3 winnings out of 4 starts with total years earning of $623,000. Trainer Brown was also very lucky as it was the fourth victory for him.

4). Juvenile Turf 2017:

Hall of Fame: Mendelssohn

Named on the 80s’ German composer Mendelssohn thrilled everyone cheering up for Juvenile Turf 2017 at Del Mar. It was the day of joy for the one of the world’s best trainer Aidan O’Brien. Son of Scat Daddy and owned by Irish powerhouse Coolmore, Mendelssohn has achieved four wins in his eleven starts career with overall earnings of $1,317,137. The year 1018 is also very lucky for this champion as he has collected two winnings out of six starts with $1,6104,85 earnings. Everyone is keeping their eyes on this strong muscle for his upcoming performance in Breeders Cup 2018.

5). Longines Distaff 2017:

Hall of Fame: Forever Unbridled

In all over her lifetime career of 8 winnings in 18 starts, this muscular Thoroughbred has not registered any winning in this year where it has participated in just one start. The year 2017 was very fantastic for both Forever Unbridled and her trainer Dallas Stewart. At Del Mar racetrack, everyone gets shocked when Unbridled marked 3 winnings in out of 3 starts. It has participated in just one race this year, maybe the Churchill Hill will turn on its light for the winning of this incredible bred again.  

These were the top races in Breeders Cup championship last year. Don’t worry, this year sun is going to shine again in Louisville. The only difference is there will be the sound of horses chasing each other at unlimited speed to prove themselves. I hope this year will also bring prosperity for all the bidders and horse lovers hoping for their best.
