Breeders' Cup, which announced last week several new additions to its wagering menu for both Friday and Saturday of this week's World Championships at Churchill Downs, has released the Head2Head wagering matchups that will be available for bettors at a 10% takeout rate and $10 minimum wager.
All told, seven Head2Head wagers, with three offered Friday and four Saturday, provide bettors the opportunity to handicap intrarace matchups in a format more similar to sports betting. The pairings will be both for groups of horses and individual interests, with bettors able to take the USA or European side in the Juvenile Fillies Turf, Juvenile Turf and Mile. There is also a head-to-head matchup between the two favorites in the Juvenile, Complexity (Maclean's Music) and Game Winner (Candy Ride {Arg}), between Enable (GB) (Nathaniel {Ire}) and the Field in the Turf and Mendelssohn (Scat Daddy) vs. Thunder Snow (Ire) (Helmet {Aus}) in the Classic.
