Flightline Drive Home An 8-Length Win, Olympiad Places, Taiba Shows

Flightline, with his jockey Flavien Prat, dominated the field in the 2022 Breeders’ Cup Classic to bring home an eight-length win. The dark bay four-year-old, trained by John Sadler, lay in second from a clean break for much of the race, which is occasionally a habit, and opened up a wide lead on Life Is Good, who had led for much of the way up the backstretch and into the far turn. Life Is Good faded quickly, allowing Olympiad to place and Taiba to show.

The race went remarkably to plan for Prat and Flightline, as predicted here.
