2022 Breeders' Cup Turf Preview
Topping the market we find Sir Michael Stoute' Bay Bridge, who took advantage of an under-par performance from Baaeed to win the Champion Stakes at Ascot. Following that victory, Stoute said a trip to the Breeders' Cup was possible and bet365 was quick to install Bay Bridge as their 3/1 favourite.
Charlie Appleby's record in North American turf contests has been incredible over the last two years. Appleby and Godolphin could be represented by last year's winner Yibir, former Epsom Derby winner Adayar, two-time German Group One winner Rebel's Romance, and Saratoga Derby winner Nations Pride.
John Gosden's multiple Group One winner, Mishriff sits prominently in the market. Tuesday and Broome could fly the flag for Aidan O'Brien. Botanik could represent leading French trainer, Andre Fabre.
The highest-placed American entrant in the Breeders' Cup betting is Billy Mott's mare War Like Goddess, who booked her spot at Keeneland by thrashing Bye Bye Melvin, Adhamo, Rockemperor and Gufo in the Joe Hirsch Turf Classic.
Other possible home runners include Chad Brown's Tribhuvan, Classic Causeway for Ken McPeek, and Graham Motion's Highland Chief, who won a handicap at Royal Ascot during his time with Paul and Oliver Cole.

Breeders' Cup Turf history
The Breeders' Cup Turf is one of three races held on turf during the Breeders' Cup.
Run over 2400m, the Breeders' Cup Turf attracts the best stayers from around the world and they don't fail to turn up.
High Chaparral, Highland Reel and Found have all won the Breeders' Cup Turf and they're some of the biggest names in European staying history.
Italian jockey Frankie Dettori and UK's Ryan Moore have each won on four occasions, most recently with Ryan Moore winning on Found in 2015.
Moore scored on board the Aidan O'Brien-trained runner, which gave O'Brien his fifth win in the race. The Irish champion trainer has since made it six wins in this race with Highland Reel.
Two horses have won consecutive Breeders' Cup Turf races. Conduit and High Chaparral produced back-to-back wins to etch their names in the history of the Breeders' Cup.
Breeders' Cup Turf betting guide
There has been only one runner to win at single-figure odds in the last four years.
The Breeders' Cup Turf has been dominated by the international runners.
Due to the race being run on turf, the European runners are naturally favoured to run well in the Breeders' Cup Turf.
Held on the second day of the festival, the Breeders' Cup Turf is one of the most popular races for punters.
The big stake money on offer makes the Breeders' Cup Turf an attractive race for all comers.
Talismatic caused an upset recently in 2017 when winning at odds of $30.20.
The Andre Fabre-trained runner wasn't fancied against a hot field, including 2017 winner Highland Reel, and it was his first Group 1 victory of his successful career.
Highland Reel scored at odds of $9.60 in 2016 and that was considered to be a great price considering his form all around the world.
Having finished in the placing at the Cox Plate, Highland Reel was an each way chance against a field that included Flintshire and Found.
Bettors have been finding good value with quality runners in recent times and 2015 winner Found was well-found in the market.
Golden Horn was heavily-backed to win the Breeders' Cup Turf but there was late money for Found and it was spot on.
The most recent US-based winner was Main Sequence in 2014, which recorded his fourth consecutive Group 1 victory since changing to the Graham Motion stables.
$14.40 was the price offered by bookmakers for Main Sequence. The field in 2014 also included quality staying types Brown Panther and Chicquita, which would later compete around the world.
