Life Is Good, the 2022 Pegasus World Cup Invitational (G1) champion, leads a strong contingent of Gulfstream Park alumni in Breeders’ Cup races Friday and Saturday at Keeneland.

Trained by Hall of Famer Todd Pletcher, the 4-year-old son of Into Mischief, who defeated defending champion and 2021 Horse of the Year Knicks Go by 3 ¼-lengths in the $3 million Pegasus Jan. 29 at Gulfstream, is rated second in the morning line at 6-1 in Saturday’s $6 million Breeders’ Cup Classic (G1). Undefeated Flightline is favored at 3-5 for the centerpiece of the two-day World Championships.
