Breeders' Cup Juvenile Turf Sprint 2018 Odds

Since it is a brand-new race there’s no historical betting data to go on for the Juvenile Turf Sprint, but as is always the case with turf racing, you can expect European-based horses to be top contenders. 

Final entries and odds will be announced on Monday, October 29. 

Here’s a look at the probable field, with future bet odds provided by Bovada’s online racebook. 

Soldier’s Call (+250)

• Has been in the money in all seven career races so far with four wins. Last out was a close up third against older horses in a Group 1 event in in France. Very dangerous front-runner.

Strike Silver (+550)
