Pacific Classic win moves ferociousness to No. 2 in the Breeders' Cup power rankings

Every week, a panel of media members, horse racing groups and officers from the Breeders Cup World Championship releases a ballot that has voted for the highest nationwide candidates for the 2025 Longines Breaders ‘Cup Traditional. Rankings are weekly scores of the highest 10 horses within the competitors, decided by every voter ranked within the prime 10 horses at factors assigned on a 10-9-8-7-6-5-5-4-3-2-1 foundation descent.

The fifth week of the 2025 Breeders’ Cup basic rankings is led by Sovereignty, the ten runaway winner of the August twenty third Draftkings Travers Stakes on the Saratoga race course. The massive movers on this week’s energy rankings had been fierce. He went as much as second place after profitable the Pacific Traditional Steaks at Del Mar on August 30, and entered the rankings for the primary time in his eighth tie after profitable the Jockey Membership’s Gold Cup Stakes on August 31 on the Saratoga race course.

The rankings are up to date weekly. The outcomes of the most recent opinion polls will be discovered beneath.
