Earlier in the day, the two favorites turned in impressive works Beholder | Coady Photography American Pharoah | Horsephotos with American Pharoah zipping four furlongs in :46.60 at Santa Anita and Beholder sizzling five furlongs at Keeneland :59.40. Both were bullet moves. The contentious 10-horse Classic field includes nine Grade/Group 1 winners and Victor Espinoza, who will ride American Pharoah, acknowledged it would not be just a race between the top two favorites. “Beholder is tough,” Espinoza said. “She’s a great filly, but I don’t worry about just one. I think about the whole field. There is a reason why they are in the race, because they are all shooting to win, and they’re all going to try to beat American Pharoah again.” Last year’s GI Belmont S. winner Tonalist (Tapit) and late- running GI Whitney H. winner Honor Code (A.P. Indy) are co- third choice in the Classic at 6-1. Tonlist will break from the rail, while Honor Code drew post nine. In all, 175 horses, including 10 also-eligibles, were entered for 13 championships races to be held for the first time at Lexington’s historic Keeneland Friday and Saturday and worth more than $26 million.

FEATURE PRESENTATION • GI BREEDERS’ CUP CLASSIC Racing Manager Justin Zayat was also pleased with the work. “He worked in :46, but it was :46 easy,” said Zayat. “We’re very, very happy. We could not be happier with him. He’s right on target. He always works well every week, so it’s no surprise to us. But we can see that right now he’s in the zone. He’s feeling it, and that’s the feeling he’s giving everyone right now. All systems are go and we’re expecting a huge race from him.” Saturday’s GI Breeders’ Cup Classic will be the final race of American Pharoah’s career and his first start since finishing second in the Aug. 29 GI Travers S.

APPEALING TALE, STICKSSTATELYDUDE OUT The Breeders’ Cup lost a pair of expected runners when Appealing Tale (Tale of the Cat) and Sticksstatelydude (First Dude) were ruled out of championship weekend with injuries. Trainer Peter Miller reported GI Breeders’ Cup Dirt Mile contender Appealing Tale came out of his work Saturday with an injured ankle. “I left there Saturday morning thinking I would win the Dirt Mile and he’s out of the race on Monday,” said Miller. “He re-injured his right front ankle, the one we took a chip out of a couple of years ago. We haven’t decided yet what to do.” GI Sentient Jet Breeders’ Cup Juvenile contender Sticksstatelydue was also ruled out of Saturday’s race. “He has a minor tendon sheath strain,” trainer Greg Burchell said Monday morning. “It is not career-ending, but our veterinarian Dr. [Otis] Cheney recommended he not run and we will go with that. It’s unfortunate, but we’re just grateful that it wasn’t something more serious.”

ASMUSSEN RUNNERS ON TRACK Trainer Steve Asmussen’s Breeders’ Cup quartet each worked four furlongs at Keeneland Monday and exercise rider Carlos Rosas was aboard for all four of the works. Winchell Thoroughbreds’ champion Untapable (Tapit) covered the distance in :50.20 as she prepares to defend her title in Friday’s GI Longines Breeders’ Cup Distaff. Fellow Winchell homebred Tapiture (Tapit), looking to improve on his runner-up effort in last year’s GI Breeders’ Cup Dirt Mile, went in :49.20. Jerry Durant’s Holy Boss (Street Boss), most recently fourth over a sloppy track in the GIII Phoenix S., went in :49.60 in preparation for the GI Twinspires Breeders’ Cup Sprint and LNJ Foxwoods’ GI Frizette S. winner Nickname (Scat Daddy) worked in :49.60 ahead of the GI 14 Hands Winery Breeders’ Cup Juvenile Fillies. After the works, Asmussen recapped the morning. “Untapable is our favorite, a true champion and we are just blessed to be around her,” Asmussen said. “Tapiture has touted himself very strongly since [winning] the [Sept. 26 GIII] Ack Ack [H.]. I think it’ll take the race of his life, but I think he’s sitting on the race of his life. I think what he’ll do is dependent upon where you’re drawn and who’s where. I think all those decisions can only be made once the draw is out.” Asmussen continued, “The thing I feel very strongly about is that Holy Boss got here doing something. Who you’re in with shouldn’t change how you go from point A to point B. He’s a great, big-bodied horse and I don’t think that he would appreciate off-going. Nickname is an extremely talented filly that trains extremely impressively. The Juvenile Fillies has quite obviously some great 2-year-old fillies in there, but I feel really good about our chances.”
