The odds to win the 2016 Breeders Cup Classic had Keen Ice and Effinex each at 26-1 odds and Hopperunity at 21-1 odds.

Keen Ice galloped 1 3/8m Thursday at Santa Anita in preparation for Saturday’s Breeders Cup Classic.  He is trained by Todd Pletcher.

”When he came back from Dubai he came to us, but he went for a vacation after that. He came to us at the beginning of the Saratoga meet,” Pletcher said. “The longer we were around him and the more we did with him the fitter he got and the more impressively he breezed. Everything we say was what we already knew – the further he goes the better he gets.”

Keen Ice has not won a race since August 2015 in the Travers Stakes.

Enffinex galloped 1 5/8m Thursday morning at Santa Anita as part of his prep.

“We might have breezed Shaman Ghost the last quarter of a mile,” trainer James Jerkens said.

At 15-1 odds, Effinex certainly has value having finished second in last year's Classic, 6 ½ lengths behind Triple Crown champion American Pharoah.

He has finished 3rd or better in six of his last nine starts.

Hoppertunity, meanwhile, comes into this race having won his last one at the Jockey Club Gold Cup.
