2014 Breeders' Cup Sprint Race Favorite Entries

Street Circle 9-2 - Bob Baffert trained colt won five of seven starts in 2012 with two seconds to go along with it - the highlights being wins in the Grade 3 Southwest Stakes in February of 2012 and the Grade 2 Rebel Stakes in March 2012. He won both starts in 2013 as well - an Allowance Optional Claiming score October 14 after 14 months away and an incredible score in last year's Breeders' Cup Sprint. He finished second in the Grade 2 Palos Verdes Stakes on this track way back in February, took eight months away and most recently was third in the Grade 1 Santa Anita Sprint Championship here October 4. Street Circle has been impressive when on the track - seven wins, three seconds and a third place finish in 11 starts and is the tepid morning line favorite Saturday. Martin Garcia gets the mount from post 4.

Rich Tapestry 5-1 - Irish bred gelding made his North American debut October 4 and won the Grade 1 Santa Anita Sprint Championship in this very track and has looked very good the last 2 1/2 years in limited starts.

Off a win in his North American debut Rich Tapestry has to be in the conversation. Oliver Doleuze gets the call from gate 6.
