Trainer Mark Casse to saddle seven Breeders’ Cup contenders this weekend
Veteran trainer Mark Casse has been a fixture lately at Santa Anita Park, keeping tabs on the seven horses he’ll run in this weekend’s Breeders’ Cup.
Not only does that mean monitoring and evaluating workouts, but also making sure all is well in the respective stalls so the throughbreds are happy and stress-free heading into their respective races.
There’s also numerous media sessions and various functions that only add to an already busy schedule leading up to the start of racing Friday.
“There’s good and bad to it,” Casse said from Arcadia, Calif., of having seven Breeders’ Cup starters. “When you have one, you only have one to worry about but when you have seven, you have seven to worry about.
