Will Saturday be a day for some of Europe's best horses to win in Breeders' Cup betting? Between Friday and Saturday, a total of 28 foreign-based horses will be running in this year's Breeders' Cup. That number is lower than two years ago when a record 34 foreign horses made the trip to Santa Anita. Two years ago it was a gold rush for foreign horses as they won six of the 14 races. In 2008 they won five races. Could this year be another great year for Europe's best? Trainer Aidan O'Brien will try and do a little better as he is sending 11 horses this year. He has sent 63 starters in the past and won just four times. Let's look at the top European horses for Saturday's races.
