From Santa Anita, Breeders’ Cup 2023 is the focus of the Ron Flatter Racing Pod.

Trainers Bill Mott, Todd Pletcher and Brad Cox discuss their top prospects in the 14 championship races Friday and Saturday.

World Horse Racing’s Naomi Tukker offers her point of view about the top matchups of the week and how defections have made the Breeders’ Cup Classic a potentially wide-open race with longer odds on so many starters.

New York radio personality Brad Blanks has a snapshot of the Breeders’ Cup scene and his plans to race back to his native Australia for next week’s Melbourne Cup.

Super Screener creator Mike Shutty talks about Breeders’ Cup trends that could be the foundation of winning bets this week.

The Ron Flatter Racing Pod via Horse Racing Nation is available via free subscription from Apple, Google and Spotify as well as HorseRacingNation.com.
