Gun Runner helps spoil Arrogate's dreams of repeating in Breeders' Cup Classic

Arrogate never stood a chance.

Co-favorite at post time, Gun Runner blazed to a fast start and barely looked back. Finishing at 2:01.29, Gun Runner defeated his closest competition, Collected, by more than two lengths.

It was a dominant performance that ended a day of surprise showings from long shots and underdogs. Perhaps the spotlight should have been on Gun Runner from the beginning.

Talismanic's late charge brings home Turf trophy

For much of the the Breeders' Cup Turf race, the field collectively decided to bide their time. With Oscar Performance holding on to top spot for the bulk of the run, the field looked to make a last-second lunge.

It worked out well for the 14-1 Talismanic, who held off Beach Patrol and race favorite Highland Reel for the 2:26.19 victory in the 1 1/2 mile race.

The field thinned after initial favorite Ulysses was scratched the day before.

Good Magic casts a runaway spell to win Juvenile

Thanks to a sluggish start for Bolt d'Oro, who started the race as a 3-5 favorite, Good Magic managed to score an impressive victory in the Sentient Jet Juvenile in 1:43.34.

Bolt d'Oro had an outside shot on the home stretch, but Good Magic prevailed with a decisive victory over the field, breaking his maiden in the process for his first-ever win.

Givemeaminit rounded out the top four despite being a 60-1 long shot before the race started. The beginning of the Juvenile was briefly stalled when Golden Dragon jumped the gate a bit early.

Roy H pulls ahead on home stretch to win TwinSpires Sprint

It's the closest thing to a favorite taking home the trophy so far on Day 2 of the 2017 Breeders' Cup.

With a chance to repeat after winning the 2016 edition of the TwinSpires, Drefong was the oddmakers' favorite at 7-5. The victorious Roy H was a close second at 9-2 odds.

Taking the race in 1:08.61, Roy H managed to hold off Imperial Hint, who lingered alongside for much of the home stretch. He's also Saturday's second winner trained by Peter Miller after Stormy Liberal won the Turf Sprint.

Wuheida dominates in Filly & Mare Turf

While not a massive underdog, Wuheida's forceful victory down the stretch in the Filly & Mare Turf race overshadowed expectations for favorite Lady Eli.

Lady Eli narrowly finished second in this same race in 2016, but fell out of competition early on in this year's contest finishing in a distant seventh. Last year's winner, Avenge, fared even worse, dropping to dead last.

Once Wuheida grabbed hold of the leader's spot, she didn't look back, winning in 1:47.91. Second-place Rhododendron had the second-best odds at race time.

Bar of Gold glimmers with shocking photo-finish win in Filly & Mare Sprint

The upsets keep on coming.

For the first half of the Breeders' Cup Filly & Mare Sprint, it looked like the oddsmakers finally got it right as 3-year-old Unique Bella jumped out to an early lead.

Bar of Gold and Ami's Mesa weren't having it, which came as something of a surprise. Bar of Gold narrowly earned the victory in 1:22.63 despite being a 30-1 long shot at the start of the day. It was the second consecutive photo finish on the day.

$2.00 Exacta: 5-14 pays $2,060.40

Stormy Liberal earns top spot in Turf Sprint with photo finish

Stormy Liberal made a last-second push to take home the victory in the Breeders' Cup Turf Sprint in :56.12. It was a photo finish for the 30-1 underdog over the more heavily favored Richard's Boy.

Overall favorite Lady Aurelia was buried in the pack from the beginning, and was never able to make a push to the front.

With the victory, Stormy Liberal became the highest price winner in the Turf Sprint's 10-year history.

Caledonia Road began Saturday as a 15-1 underdog in the Juvenile Fillies race at the Breeders' Cup, and the filly finished the day as a surprising champion, defeating Alluring Star by 3 1/4 lengths.

Race favorite Moonshine Memories was neck-and-neck with Alluring Star before fading in the final stretch when Caledonia Road staked her claim to the race in 1:45.05.
