Horse Racing Legend 'Mr. Ed' Ready for Breeders' Cup at Churchill Downs
Mr. Ed, a seasoned horse racing handicapper, is gearing up for the Breeders' Cup. He'll be at Churchill Downs on Thursday, handicapping a 10-race card, and will reveal his Breeders' Cup selections on VSiN.
Mr. Ed has been meticulously studying the entries for the 14 Breeders' Cup races, with five on Friday and nine on Saturday. He's already provided picks for Wednesday's races at Churchill Downs, including a Daily Double in the first two races.
On Thursday, Mr. Ed's selections include Ice Shot in Race 3, a lightly raced horse with a class relief and a rider change to Francisco Arrieta. In Race 9, he likes Foie Gras, an expensive filly ready to win for the Asmussen father-son team. For Race 4, he chooses What Say Thee, a horse for the course with a drop in class and the same jockey, Luis Saez. In Race 6, he's excited about Aggro, a well-bred filly with a rider change to Jose Ortiz for her first start after a claim. Mr. Ed has a $.50 Pick 4 for Races 7-10, with specific picks for each race.
Mr. Ed's most successful horse racing meet of 2025 was at Keeneland last Saturday. His Churchill Downs picks include Devil Pays In Gold and Outrageously in Race 1, and Augusta Melody and Big Effect in Race 2 for the Daily Double.
Mr. Ed is looking forward to the Breeders' Cup, with his in-depth analysis of over 100 horses entered. His expert picks and handicapping skills will be on full display at Churchill Downs on Thursday, with his Breeders' Cup selections to follow on VSiN.
