Breeders Cup undefeateds

I know they don't race as often, and there are some short fields for some of these Grade 1's, but it is still remarkable that we have some real stars coming in undefeated on the year. California Chrome is on the verge of the best year since Cigar, and Tepin is a global sensation. Throw in the brilliance of Songbird, and we really have a special year. Look no further than Flintshire to see how difficult it is to go undefeated in a full season of racing.

speaking of CIGAR who was the all time north American money winner for many years, since dethroned of that a few years back..
Chrome now holds that title...a win in the BCC and the G! at GP that replaces the DONN nest year, and his money won will be VERY tough to duplicate.

he has about 14,000,000 in winnings
