Sierra Leone Wins Breeders' Cup Classic
Sierra Leone triumphed in the $7 million Breeders' Cup Classic at Del Mar, overcoming previous narrow losses in major races like the Kentucky Derby and Belmont Stakes. Under the guidance of jockey Flavien Prat, Sierra Leone surged past favored competitor Fierceness in the final stretch, securing victory by 1 1/2 lengths. The win marks trainer Chad Brown's first Classic title and adds to his impressive tally of 19 career Breeders' Cup wins. Despite a slow start, Sierra Leone's strategic pacing allowed him to capitalize on the fast pace set by early leaders, including Fierceness and Derma Sotogake. Meanwhile, City of Troy, a top contender, struggled with the transition to dirt and finished eighth. Sierra Leone, a 6-1 choice, rewarded bettors with $15.80 for the win, affirming his status as a consistent and resilient competitor.
