2022 Breeders’ Cup Juvenile Turf Sprint Handicapping
The 2022 Breeders’ Cup World Championships kick off on Friday afternoon and the first BC race on the Keeneland card is the Juvenile Turf Sprint.
Run at 5 1/2 furlongs on the Keeneland grass, the Juvenile Turf Sprint has drawn an International field of 12 two-year old colts and fillies.
The 2021 BC Juvenile Turf Sprint was won by the filly Twilight Gleaming at odds of 5-1 and paid out $12.40 for the win, while the $1 exacta paid $67.50 and the $.50 trifecta paid $422.35.
Odds listed here are provided by the Keeneland track oddsmaker.
2022 Breeders’ Cup Juvenile Turf Sprint Free Pick & Handicapping: The Platinum Queen Race Odds: 7-2
Irish-bred filly The Platinum Queen comes in off a narrow victory in a Group 1 event in France over colts, while carrying a huge weight advantage. The third-place finisher that race came back to win his next start.
For her career she has a record of four wins and two runner-up finishes in seven career races. All of those came at 5 furlongs, so she’ll need to get a bit more distance here in her North American debut, while coming from the outside post.
2022 Breeders’ Cup Juvenile Turf Sprint Free Pick & Handicapping: Love Reigns Race Odds: 4-1
The second Irish filly in the field, Love Reigns comes in off a stakes win at Saratoga going 5 1/2 furlongs. She hit the wire in front by 2 1/2 lengths over a second-place finisher that came back to win next out.
She started her career with a win at Keeneland at the 5 1/2 furlong distance and so is 1-for-1 at the track and 2-for-2 at the distance. On Friday she’ll be taking on colts for the first time in her three-race career.
2022 Breeders’ Cup Juvenile Turf Sprint Free Pick & Handicapping: Speed Boat Beach Odds: 6-1
The blazing fast Speed Boat Beach set a track record in his very first lifetime start going 5 1/2 furlongs on the dirt at Del Mar. He then moved to turf for his second effort and won again with a very fast final time.
He’s been training for the BC at Santa Anita, where he has recorded two consecutive bullet workouts in anticipation of making his Keeneland debut.
2022 Breeders’ Cup Juvenile Turf Sprint Free Pick & Handicapping: Private Creed Race Odds: 12-1
Yet another last-out winner in the field, Private Creed took the Indian Summer Stakes at Keeneland racing 5 1/2 furlongs and rallying from off the pace one month ago.
That was his second consecutive stakes victory and third in four career starts. He has won two of three at the distance and has improved his Equibase speed figure each time out.
Here’s My 2022 Breeders’ Cup Juvenile Turf Sprint Free Pick.
As can be expected in turf sprint racing, this field is loaded with early speed, and at least a half-dozen could be vying for the front as they go into the turn.
While I can respect the recent success of The Platinum Queen racing against colts in Europe, I think the outside post draw could be a problem with so much other speed to her inside. So I’m going to look to the other filly, Love Reigns to get good position early from the #2 post and hold on for the win.
