Big Evs on Brink of Breeders' Cup History for Owner Who Named Him in Honor of Late Best Mate


Big Evs on Brink of Breeders Cup History for Owner Who Named Him in Honor of Late Best Mate

The 'King of Southwell' Arrives at Santa Anita

Big Evs, trained by Mick Appleby, is set to make Breeders' Cup history in the Juvenile Turf Sprint at Santa Anita. This unexpected journey has taken Appleby out of his comfort zone as an all-weather specialist. But with Big Evs, he has a horse that has allowed him to showcase his talents on a much larger stage. Appleby is thrilled with the opportunity and hopes for another amazing day this weekend.

An Unlikely Partnership

Both Mick Appleby and owner, Paul Teasdale, are not accustomed to competing with the world's top trainers and horses. However, they have joined forces to give themselves the best chance at Santa Anita. Teasdale, a lifelong Crystal Palace fan, turned down significant offers for Big Evs because the horse holds a special meaning to him. He named the colt after his late best friend and is determined to keep him, regardless of the price.

Simple Tactics for the Race

In the Breeders' Cup Juvenile Turf Sprint, jockey Tom Marquand will attempt to take Big Evs to the front from stall four and dictate the pace from there. Marquand, who is having his first ever Breeders' Cup ride, is excited to be racing at Santa Anita and believes in the horse's speed and ability. Appleby shares this confidence and believes that if Big Evs starts well, he will be tough to beat.

A Big Moment for Mick Appleby

Mick Appleby is thrilled to have the opportunity to compete in the Breeders' Cup with a talented horse like Big Evs. He recognizes the significance of this moment and hopes for a successful outcome. If Big Evs were to win, Appleby jokes that he might not be seen at Southwell for a while, as he celebrates the victory.
