Breeders Cup Betting – Havre de Grace Has Continued On A Special Path
Whether it was Rachel Alexandra, or Zenyatta, the sport of horse racing is no longer left to the males to dominate. While they may have the edge in overall numbers and intertops percentages, each of the past two Horse of the Year winners have both been female, and that trend is likely to continue in 2011 with European product Havre de Grace on the verge of cementing her legacy. Havre de Grace is listed as the second-best favorite to win the upcoming Breeders’ Cup Classic at 3-to-1 odds with only Uncle Mo listed higher, and the truth is that it may not have to actually win the pay head race to be named Horse of the Year for 2011.
A close sports betting finish against a tough group of contenders may be enough to elevate Havre de Grace to the level of Horse of the Year after everything it has already accomplished. With more wins this year than any of the other horses heading in to the season finale, Havre de Grace will shoot for the biggest prize of them all and the chance to prove its merit against one of the finest group of males to ever compete in this race. The four-year old has won eight of 14 career starts and never finished worse than third, and with five wins in six starts this season, we could be in for an incredible finish at this weekend’s Breeders Cup Classic.
