If this is the best renewal of the Breeders' Cup Juvenile Fillies Turf, as some suggest, that owes greatly to the presence of Sun Goddess, perhaps the best 2-year-old filly the great Aidan O'Brien has trained.

Harper's Corner looked to be home free in the Grade 3 Matron Stakes on Oct. 3 at Belmont Park, opening up by daylight at midstretch before Brickyard Belle flashed by in the final strides to win it by a half-length.

Trainer Brendan Walsh has had several years to seriously consider winning a race at the Breeders' Cup, having entered at least one runner in each championship event since 2020. Some of his defeats have stung more than others, but Emphatic will have the chance to make up for all in the $2 million Breeders' Cup Juvenile Fillies on Friday at Keeneland.

No one has dominated a Breeders' Cup race the way Aidan O'Brien has the Breeders' Cup Juvenile Turf. He has won eight of the 17 runnings of the one-mile turf race, including the last four. While O'Brien is back with another quartet of runners for this year's 18th renewal of the $1 million Juvenile Turf to be run Friday at Keeneland, it may be his son Joseph O'Brien who has the horse to beat.

The last five runnings of the Breeders' Cup Juvenile have been won by either Bob Baffert or Todd Pletcher. Further, those two Hall of Fame trainers have combined to win 11 Juveniles, all since Baffert won his first in 2002 with Vindication. Given Baffert and Pletcher have four of the eight runners entered in Friday's $2 million Juvenile at Keeneland, one or the other will likely add to their bounty.
