Whilst Conduit and Goldikova were both well-backed winners, the bookies virtually celebrated every other race on the night and the success of Dettori on Donativum and Ravens Pass, came at the expense of the well-backed Westphalia and Curlin. "The Breeders' Cup grows in stature every year, and this year's running has resulted in the highest turnover that William Hill has ever experienced on US racing." said William Hill's spokesman David Hood. "The Breeders' Cup Classic was crowned the biggest punted race of the night, with the $5million event yielding the same turnover as Saturday's UK feature race - The Racing Post Trophy. Since the inception of Pro-ride and Polytrack in the States, these results demonstrate that the Europeans can now compete on a truly level playing field and we'll not fear the Americans again." |
