Breeders' Cup: Flightline dusts the field for Classic win

The Breeders’ Cup Classic did not have any surprises as Flightline smoked the entire field in the mile-and-a-quarter race around Keeneland. At 1-2 odds on the board, KSR’s “Kobe Bryant of horses” sat comfortably behind Life Is Good for most of the race before taking the lead at the top of the stretch and running away with an eighth-length victory for the six million dollar prize.

“It is Flightline in a spine-tingling, jaw-dropping, awe-inspiring, Secretariat-like Breeders’ Cup Classic win!”

See for yourself…

Flightline is one of the GOATs

Trained by John Sadler and ridden by Flavian Prat, Flightline remained undefeated with the Breeders’ Cup Classic win, the sixth in the short career of the four-year-old colt.
