The Irish are well represented at the Breeders’ Cup in Del Mar this year with Michael O’Callaghan and Leigh Roche fancied for glory with Twilight Jet.

This exciting two-year-old son of Twilight Son impressed last time out when winning the Group Three Cornwallis Stakes at Newmarket over the 5f trip.

Now this youngster has made the trip to Del Mar to try and conquer the Breeders’ Cup Juvenile Turf Sprint & we’re making him a 7/1 chance.

The Wesley A Ward trained Averly Jane is the current 9/4 favourite. Ward also trains the 4/1 second favourite Twilight Gleaming.

The Dermot Weld trained Tarnawa is the 11/8 favourite to win the Breeders’ Cup Turf over 1m4f for the second year running. This daughter of Shamardal has won at tracks all over the world including Keenland and Longchamp with her run behind St Mark’s Basilica in the Irish Champion Stakes tremendous form to have.

Aidan O’Brien has a few names in the mix including Bolshoi Ballet (16/1), Broome (18/1), Japan (22/1) and Mogul (33/1) in the betting ahead of the final field declarations.
