Review - Breeders' Cup Dirt Mile
WinStar Farm and Don Alberto Stable’s Battle of Midway prevailed by a half-length over pace-setting Sharp Azteca after a stretch-long duel to win the 11th running of the $1 million Breeders’ Cup Dirt Mile for 3-year-olds and up Friday afternoon at Del Mar racetrack.
The victory was the third for Hollendorfer in the Breeders’ Cup and second in the Dirt Mile, having won previously with Dakota Phone at Churchill Downs in 2010.
Battle of Midway came first followed closely by Sharp Azteca and Awesome Slew at second and third positions respectively.
