1m Breeders’ Cup Mile (Grade 1) (3yo+) (Turf) (3yo+)
I fancy the home team in this type of race as the fast pace and tight turns can catch out European horses over a mile or shorter. Front runners are often good bets and FACTOR THIS can defy a wide draw by getting straight to the business end and staying there. His form is rock solid having only been beaten once in his past six starts, when a valiant second conceding 5lb to Digital Age. That consistency and run style is exactly what you want from an each-way bet and 16/1 is big. Others on the short list are last year’s winner Uni and 2,000 Guineas winner Kameko, with the former a big price if she can defy her wide draw.
