Check out who has leaped into latest Breeders’ Cup odds
With their one-two finish Saturday in the Grade 1, $1 million Pacific Classic at Del Mar, Tripoli and Tizamagician moved into futures betting for the Nov. 6 Breeders’ Cup Classic.
After his 1 1/4-length victory over the same course that will be used for the $6 million championship, Tripoli opened at 12-1 at Costa Rica-based Bovada. Runner-up Tizamagician had his odds set at 25-1.
Bovada reposted odds Monday for the nine Breeders’ Cup races that will be run Nov. 6 at Del Mar. Betting for the Nov. 5 races, all for 2-year-olds, has yet to open.

Mile
Still favored to win the $2 million Mile, Palace Pier drifted from +150 to +185 as the bloom has faded on his Prix Jacques le Marois (G1) score last Sunday in France. Baaeed, a 4-for-4 colt racing Saturday in the Celebration Mile (G2) in England, jumped into the mix at 8-1. Got Stormy, a 12-1 winner Aug. 14 in the Fourstardave Handicap (G1) at Saratoga, moved into the Mile picture at 9-1.

Dirt Mile
The odds for the $1 million Dirt Mile have not changed since last week, when Silver State became the 4-1 favorite despite finishing third in the Whitney (G1). Jackie’s Warrior is still the 5-1 second choice even though this race might not suit him because it is run around two turns at Del Mar.

Turf Sprint
A trip to England to finish seventh Friday in the Nunthorpe Stakes (G1) led to Golden Pal drifting from 9-4 to 3-1.
