Bob Baffert’s Secret Circle, sent off as the 2/5 favorite in the inaugural running of the Breeders’ Cup Juvenile, held off a late charge by European raider Shumoos to win the first race of the 2011 Breeders’ Cup at Churchill Downs.
The early speed set an absolutely blistering pace, clocking the first quarter mile in a 20.96 seconds. The final quarter mile was predictably slower at 25.97 seconds.
