The late pick 4 on Saturday goes Turf, Filly n Mare Sprint, Mile, Classic.

Someone help me, why in God\'s name is the Filly n Mare Sprint in that sequence and goes off AFTER the Turf? May be the least interesting race this year. Who is favored Carina Mia? Irish Jasper? This feels like a much better undercard race as opposed to a main event that late in the sequence. Thoughts?

You are correct.

Latest news. I also do not care for the F&M Sprint placement, but the Sprint only has 9 pre-entered while the F&M Sprint will draw a full field that will lead to a larger pool.

$4 million Longines Breeders' Cup Turf (3:22 p.m.)
$1 million Breeders' Cup Filly & Mare Sprint (4:01)
$2 million Breeders' Cup Mile (4:40 p.m.)
$6 million Breeders\' Cup Classic (5:35 p.m.).

Yeah guys, I saw something on the regular sprint being in there too, but Bloodhorse just posted the official race order with the Filly Sprint as leg two of the late pick 4.

Either way, seems like a chalky pk4 on the surface, no? That\'s why I like the Juvenile being in the sequence....always a full field and prices are always possible there given the development curve at 2yo.
