Templegate looks ahead to the star-studded Breeders' Cup meetings at Keeneland, with coverage airing on ITV for UK punters on Friday and Saturday.

Here, Templegate shares his top tip of the evening first, before breaking down every race on the card.

FRIDAY

BEST BET

SUN GODDESS (8.15)

Can deliver a third Breeders' Cup Juvenile Fillies Turf victory in five years for Aidan O'Brien.

She delivered a brilliant performance to win the Cheveley Park on fast ground and proved her stamina at The Curragh by capturing the Group 1 Moyglare in softer conditions.

A wide draw on the turf course works to her advantage, allowing jockey Ryan Moore to avoid traffic around the turns before launching a strong late charge on the outside.

Rest of the action

BRICKYARD BELLE can secure the home team's opening victory of the night in the Juvenile Turf Sprint (6.55).

She posted a very fast time when taking the Matron Stakes at Belmont in her most recent outing.

She receives a helpful 3lb weight allowance from the colts and relies on a late finish that can pay off here.

MISS MONICA (7.35) has been defeating her opponents easily in California and delivered an impressive Grade 1 victory last time out.

She will be very difficult to beat if she handles this extended distance.

The home contingent has the Juvenile entirely to themselves, and COACH POPE (8.55) is tipped to emerge victorious.

He was handled too aggressively when finishing second in a Grade 1 event at this track previously, and jockey Jose Ortiz will hopefully show more patience this time to see out the trip.

Looking at the Juvenile Turf (9.35), Folsom Blues brings the most compelling form, though this represents much faster ground than he has encountered previously for trainer Joseph O'Brien.

That opens the door for his father Aidan to claim this contest for the fifth straight year with GREAT BARRIER REEF, assuming everything is fine and he takes his place.

He triumphed in the Coventry Stakes at Royal Ascot on quick ground prior to running a respectable third behind stablemate Darkness Falls in the Dewhurst when stepping up in distance suited him well.

Reports indicated he suffered a stone bruise on Thursday, but connections hope he lines up.

SATURDAY

BEST BET

NOTABLE SPEECH (8.20)

Can defend the Breeders' Cup Mile crown for trainer Charlie Appleby and jockey William Buick.

He performed brilliantly when winning this exact race a year ago and enters this season in excellent form.

He handled tacky ground to capture the Group 1 City Of York before enjoying much quicker conditions when securing his second Woodbine Mile in Canada last month.

Stall eight presents no issues, and he is hard to fault.

Rest of the action

WAYS AND MEANS (5.10) recorded an impressive Grade 1 victory at Saratoga last time out, and a repeat of that effort will prove more than sufficient.

COMMANCHE BRAVE (5.48) has made virtually no mistakes this campaign and easily won The Curragh Flying Five in his latest start.

That effort followed his July Cup triumph on fast ground, and he can test Bacio all the way.

BLUE BOLT (7.04) can defeat Precise in what promises to be a thrilling contest.

She stayed a mile effectively during her previous two Group 1 victories, and this slightly longer distance will suit her on a sharp track.

LIAM SMITH (7.42) appears to be a strong each-way option after clocking a quick time at Santa Anita recently, and he can set a fast pace before holding on for a place.

FULLY SUBSCRIBED (8.58) delivered an impressive winning performance at this venue previously and holds proven stamina over this distance, meaning she should be close at the finish.

JOHANNA WALSH (9.36) can lead home a competitive European challenge in the Turf.

She disliked the soft ground at York following an impressive fast-ground Group 1 victory at The Curragh.

Trainer Joseph O'Brien will undoubtedly have her fully prepared for the assignment.

KNIGHTSBRIDGE (10.16) can edge out stablemate and Japanese contender Forever Young in the Classic.

He produced a blistering time at Del Mar last time out and handles this trip well.
