Live Longshots (Friday)
Breeders’ Cup Juvenile Turf Sprint #10 So Perfect (12-1): I really like Soldier’s Call (#2) in this spot coming off a third-place finish against older males in a Group 1 race in France, but I’m looking to pair him with another runner who offers better value and I landed on the filly So Perfect. She was third, beaten by three-quarters of a length, in a Group 1 race in England in September and ran second in a Group 1 against males in August. She has some tactical speed and could be in front in early stretch for Ballydoyle trainer Aidan O’Brien.
Breeders’ Cup Juvenile Fillies Turf #2 The Mackem Bullet (15-1): This is a loaded field with two potential U.S. stars and a very strong European contingent, but I think The Mackem Bullet could be overlooked. At 15-1 on the morning line, this filly ran second by a nose in a Group 2 race in August and second by a neck in a Group 1 race in September in her last two races. My only concern is whether she can stretch out to a mile, but I definitely think she’s fast enough to compete.
Breeders’ Cup Juvenile Turf
#5 Line of Duty (10-1): The consensus seems to be that Anthony Van Dyck (#14) is by far the top European invader for this race and he’s clearly talented, but Line of Duty has won two in a row, including a Group 3 race, and he’s been first or second in each of his four starts. His dam (mother) ran second in the 1,000 Guineas at this one-mile distance, and Line of Duty drew a much better post position than Anthony Van Dyck in a race where it really matters.
Sentient Jet Breeders’ Cup Juvenile
#4 Tight Ten (30-1): Tight Ten set the pace and fought gamely late in the Grade 3 Iroquois Stakes at this track and distance, and I think he got something out of his first try stretching out in distance. I prefer Code of Honor (#11) in the top spot, but I think Tight Ten runs well at a huge price and finds his way into the trifecta.

Juvenile Turf Sprint:
Difficult to separate them. Trainer Wesley Ward is great with 2-year-olds He has four in this race. I’ll go with his runner Shang Shang Shang (6-1) with Johnny Velazquez aboard.
Juvenile Fillies Turf:
Newspaperofrecord (2-1) is the pick. She’s trained by Chad Brown, who has won this race four times.
Juvenile Fillies:
Restless Rider likes Churchill Downs and 9-2 is a square price.
Juvenile Turf:
European invader Anthony Van Dyck looks best on paper, but the far outside post is a concern. So, I’ll select another solid Euro, Line of Duty, whose morning line is 10-1.
Juvenile:
This one comes down to Game Winner (8-5) and Complexity (5-2), a pair of potential stars. I’ll take a stab with Complexity and the tad better odds. I think he’ll take the lead and make Game Winner chase. Complexity should be in front near the top of the stretch. Here’s hoping he can hold off the Baffert runner.
