I am very much hoping that this week will be my favourite Breeders' Cup, but up to now the one that resonates most with me is the 2015 GI Breeders' Cup Classic (video), when American Pharoah (Pioneerof the Nile) put a crown on his fantastic racing career. I was fortunate enough to be in Keeneland to witness the event and the roars from the stands when he raced clear up the straight were deafening but memorable. The crowd really appreciated that they were witnessing an exceptional Classic winner and for the Triple Crown hero to regain his winning ways on the back of a tough defeat in the GI Travers S. was to me something special.
