Breeders Cup Dirt Mile 2026 Betting Odds

Saturday 31 October 2026 · Keeneland · By Matthew Glazier · Last updated

Cody's Wish landed a successive double in this race in 2022 and 2023, with Full Serrano and Nysos having also claimed a victory in this encounter. The 2026 race will have a brand new winner and Knightsbridge is the horse that is trading at the shortest price. William Mott saddles a runner who was last seen achieving a decisive victory at Del Mar.

Bracket Buster could be an each-way snip at the prices. The Victoria H Oliver-trained runner was only two lengths off the pace at Parx, with Bishops Bay operating at a similar price and surely in with a shout. Further Ado and Plutarch are other horses who could land a share of the prize money and we're intrigued to see how the betting market pans out.

Breeders Cup Dirt Mile Betting Tips

Bracket Buster looks a great each-way pick, with the four-year-old trained by Victoria Oliver and there have been some promising runs thus far. There was a victory as the 2/1 favourite at Mountaineer Park, with the horse romping home by a monster fifteen lengths. However, the horse couldn't oblige as a market leader at Parx in September.

Knightsbridge is the five-year-old that they have to beat according to the Breeders Cup betting sites. Back in July, we saw the William Mott-trained charge secure the spoils at Monmouth Park where a victory by over ten lengths was landed. Then came an August success at Del Mar where the 11/10 favourite was a comprehensive winner once again.

Bishops Bay runs for Brad H Cox and the six-year-old has had a fine season so far. In August, the horse fended off three other runners to claim a win at Monmouth Park, with that coming before a victory at Churchill Downs where the 57/20 shot was able to oblige in the Grade 3 Ack Ack Stakes. There could be more to come from a horse who has racked up plenty of prize money.

Further Ado is another Brad H Cox-trained runner who could be in the mix, with the 2/1 favourite running well at Parx in September. There was a June victory at Churchill Downs when obliging in the Matt Winn Stakes, a Grade Three encounter. There was a more disappointing July effort at Monmouth Park when finishing fifth out of seven.

Breeders Cup Dirt Mile Prediction: Bracket Buster
