Baffert Trio Draws Outside, Tiz The Law Inside For 2020 Breeders’ Cup Classic

A total of 184 horses were entered in the 2020 edition of the Breeders' Cup World Championships, scheduled for Nov. 6-7 at Keeneland in Lexington, Ky., including 37 international contenders.

The $6 million Breeders' Cup Classic headlines the event, with a high-powered field of 10 ready to face off over 1 1/4 miles. Trainer Bob Baffert's strong trio will break from the three outside posts: Awesome Again winner Improbable from gate eight (5-2 favorite), Kentucky Derby winner Authentic from gate nine (6-1), and Pacific Classic winner Maximum Security from gate ten (7-2).

Meanwhile, Belmont and Travers Stakes winner Tiz the Law will be nearer to the rail in post two. Trained by Barclay Tagg, the 3-year-old son of Constitution was made the second choice on the morning line at 3-1.

Last year's G1 Clark winner Tom's d'Etat will break from post four at odds of 6-1 for trainer Al Stall, Jr., on the 10-year anniversary of his upset victory with Blame over Zenyatta.

By My Standards has put together a strong campaign in 2020 as well, with three Grade 2 wins and a second to Improbable in the G1 Whitney to his credit. The Bret Calhoun trainee will break from post three at 10-1 on the morning line.
