    The second day of the Breeders’ Cup featured nine races, starting with the Filly & Mare Sprint and ending with the Dirt Mile. Meanwhile, the Breeders’ Cup crown jewel event, the Classic, dropped with a $7 million purse in tow.

    This year’s Breeders’ Cup was held at Del Mar Racetrack in Del Mar, California. A total of $34 million is paid out in purses and prizes over the course of the two-day event.

    Here’s a look at the day’s results, purses, payouts and highlights.

    Filly & Mare Sprint ($1 million purse)

    1. Soul of an Angel ($520,000 odds: Win ($41.60), Place ($9.80), Show ($8.40)

    2. Society ($170,000): Place ($5.80), Show ($4.20)

    3. Pleasant ($90,000): Show ($8.20)

    Soul of an Angel, at 12-1, was victorious after charging from a distance. He barely beat Society, who held the lead at the inside bar for most of the backstretch before Soul of an Angel’s furious finish.

    Turf Sprint ($1 million purse)

    1. Starlust ($520,000 stake): Win ($69.20), Place ($27.20), Show ($14.60)

    2. Engine ($170,000): Seat ($11.00), Show ($7.20)

    3. Ag Bullet ($90,000): Show ($6.80)

    Jockey Rossa Ryan had the ride of a lifetime here, riding 30-1 Starlust to victory, splitting the horse between two contenders and emerging victorious. Ryan called it a “perfect opening” afterward in a post-race interview with Carlos Morales.

    An investigation followed, but the result stood.

    What a star – one of the best young jockeys in Europe kept Rossa Ryan #Lust for stars calm at first and delivered perfectly. A brilliantly timed run to take #TurfSprint. An investigation is underway – let’s hope the result will stand.

    Distaff ($2 million purse)

    1. Thorpedo Anna ($1,040,000 odds: Win ($2.80), Place ($2.40), Show ($2.10)

    2. Raging Sea ($340,000): Place ($3.00), Show ($2.40)

    3. Confiate ($180,000): Show ($2.80)

    Thorpedo Anna left no doubt as to the winner of this race, controlling it throughout and holding off Raging Sea for a comfortable win. It marked another win in a phenomenal year for Thorpedo Anna, who won six of seven events, including the Kentucky Oaks and Travers Stakes.

    1. Rebel’s Romance ($2.6 million share: Win ($5.80), Place ($4.40), Show ($3.20)

    2. Rousham Park ($850,000): Place ($15.60), Show ($11.60)

    3. Shahryar ($450,000): Show ($4.80)

    Rebel’s Romance took the lead before the top of the stretch and took a resounding lead in the closing moments before Rousham Park tried to steal the win before the finish line. In the end, Rebel’s Romance did enough for the win, winning this event for the second time in three years.

    Classic: ($7 million purse)

    1. Sierra Leone ($3,640,000 share money): Win ($15.80), Place ($5.60), Show ($3.60)

    2. Fierceness ($1,190,000): Place ($4.40), Show ($3.20)

    3. Forever Young ($630,000): Issue ($3.60)

    At 40-1, Derma Sotogake led much of the race before 5-2 favorite Fierceness took over. But Sierra Leone, ay 6-1, charged strongly from the outside and beat Fiercness by over a length. It was a sensational race for Sierra Leone, the runner-up in this year’s Kentucky Derby.

    Filly & Mare Turf ($2 million purse)

    1. Moira ($1,040,000 odds: Win ($13.60), Place ($5.80), Show ($4.20)

    2. Cinderella’s Dream ($340,000): Place ($4.60), Show ($3.40)

    3. Didia ($180,000): Show ($7.00)

    Moira moved from the outside to the backside past Full Count Felicia and held on for the win. Full Count Felicia led for almost the entire race, but lost momentum along the way and ended up finishing outside the top six. Still, credit to Moira, 5-1, for a sensational run and to jockey Flavien Prat, who won back-to-back races after riding Sierra Leone to victory. Cinderella’s Dream, the pre-race favorite, finished second.

    Sprint ($2 million purse)

    1. Straight No Chaser ($1,040,000 purse share): Win ($14.20), Place ($7.60), Show ($5.00)

    2. Bentornato ($340,000): Place ($23.80), Show ($12.60)

    3. Mullikin ($180,000): Issue ($3.60)

    This was a fantastic two-horse race between 6-1 Straight No Chaser and 25-1 Longshot Bentornato. Federal Judge led most of the race but gave way to the former two horses in a showdown down the stretch. In the end, Straight No Chaser charged strongly from the outside and won by nearly a length.

    1. More Than Looks ($1,040,000 odds: Win ($15.80), Place ($6.40), Show ($3.60)

    2. Johannes ($340,000): Place ($5.20), Show ($3.60)

    3. Mullikin ($180,000): Issue ($2.80)

    More Than Looks charged all the way to the back of the pack to emerge victorious, beating Johannes for the win. It was an incredible late blow for the 6-1 horse, ridden by Jose Ortiz, who did a fantastic job here.

    Dirt Mile ($2 million purse)

    1. Complete Serrano ($1,040,000 odds: Win ($28.80), Place ($12.40), Show ($7.40)

    2. Post Time ($340,000): Place ($7.60), Show ($4.40)

    3. Domestic Product ($180,000): Show ($3.20)

    Post Time made a push down the stretch, but 15-1 Full Serrano continued his lucrative move from Argentina to the US as he finished strongly to claim victory in the final championship race of the night.
