Last year's winner of the Breeders Cup Classic, Zenyatta could well be on her way to grabbing a double whammy, if the odds on this race are anything to go by.

This superstar filly won the Breeders in 2009 and there seems to be no stopping her unbroken 19-0 record in doing so again.

Zenyatta's most significant threat seems to be come from Lookin at Lucky, the horse that won the Indiana Derby recently and is in top form.

The Breeders Cup Classic promises to be the highlight of this year's Breeders Cup and will feature some of the most powerful horses from North America and Europe.

The Classic is run on a one and quarter mile dirt course, a fact that doesn't seem to bother Zenyatta's trainer, Shirreff, who believes that the filly thrives on this type of track.

The prize fund in the Classic is $5 million and the race is open to both sexes, as long as the horse is 3 years old or above.

The winner of the Breeders Cup Classic will win $2 million.

Odds on the horse to win this year's Breeders Cup Classic:

Zenyatta 5/2

Quality Road 13/2

Blame 5/1

Lookin at Lucky 15/1

Crown of Thorns 15/1

Espoir City 15/1
