Breeders’ Cup: See impact of weekend on new futures odds

It looked like oddsmakers and bettors gave Forza Di Oro a little more scrutiny in the Breeders’ Cup futures market.

Costa Rica-based Bovada moved the 4-year-old Speightstown colt’s odds out to 12-1 to win the $6 million Classic this fall at Del Mar. He had opened last week at 10-1 after finishing third as the 11-10 favorite Sept. 4 in the Jockey Club Gold Cup (G1) at Saratoga.

Here are Bovada’s updated Breeders’ Cup futures odds for the nine races scheduled to be run Saturday, Nov. 6 (odds from last week in parentheses):

Turf

Coolmore 3-year-old St Mark’s Basilica met expectations as a 5-6 favorite Saturday when he won the Irish Champion Stakes (G1). With a five-race winning streak, the Siyouni colt moved from 7-1 to 9-2 in the futures. Only Mishriff and Domestic Spending carry shorter odds. Also from Coolmore, Love drifted from 8-1 to 10-1 after her upset loss Sunday in the Blandford (G2) at the Curragh in Ireland. After winning her first six starts, Love has lost her last three.

Filly & Mare Turf

Snowfall’s loss as the 1-5 favorite Sunday in the Prix Vermeille (G1) in Paris dropped her from the favorite’s role to no better than a 4-1 third choice for the Filly & Mare Turf. Audarya, still winless since winning this Breeders’ Cup race last year, finally opened at 8-1 to defend her title after she finished second last month in the Prix Jean Romanet (G1) in France.

Dirt Mile

Art Collector and By My Standards made modest moves in the Dirt Mile market. The winner of last month’s Charles Town Classic (G2), Art Collector was shortened to an 11-2 fourth choice. Now more than five weeks since he finished last in the Whitney (G1) at Saratoga, By My Standards went from 12-1 to 14-1.

Turf Sprint

Gear Jockey had been 0-for-5 in graded stakes. That was before the 4-year-old Twirling Candy colt won Saturday in the Turf Sprint (G3) at Kentucky Downs. That victory thrust Gear Jockey into the Breeders’ Cup futures at 8-1. Fast Boat and Casa Creed, Saturday’s fourth- and fifth-place finishers, respectively, drifted to longer odds in the futures. So did Dragon Symbol, the beaten favorite Sunday in the Flying Five (G1) in Ireland.

  5-2   (5-2) Golden Pal

  7-1   (7-1) Starman

  8-1   (8-1) Campanelle

25-1 (25-1) Supremacy

Filly & Mare Sprint

There were no changes from last week. With her 9-for-10 record and $1,681,500 in earnings, five-time Grade 1 winner Gamine is still the shortest-priced favorite of Breeders’ Cup race in the Bovada futures.

  1-1   (1-1) Gamine

  5-2   (5-2) Bella Sofia

13-2 (13-2) Ce Ce

  8-1   (8-1) Souper Sensational
