Three horses that have been pre-entered for races on Breeders' Cup Saturday took to the Santa Anita main track for timed breezes Thursday morning.

Prepping for the GI Longines Breeders' Cup Classic, Joe Peacock, Jr.'s Senor Buscador (Mineshaft) fired a bullet five furlongs in :59.40 with big-race rider Geovanni Franco in the irons. It was the fastest of 19 moves at the distance.

“He went really well, he dragged me around there,” Franco said of this year's GII San Diego H. upsetter.

Franco was also in the irons when Senor Buscador ran on nicely for fourth behind Arabian Knight (Uncle Mo) and Geaux Rocket Ride (Candy Ride {Arg}) in the GI TVG Pacific Classic Sept. 2 and again when third to Slow Down Andy (Nyquist) in the GI Awesome Again S. Sept. 30.

Didia (Arg) (Orpen), who arguably represents North America's best chance in the GI Maker's Mark Filly & Mare Turf, went five-eighths of a mile in 1:01.80 for Nacho Correas, while Lane Way (Into Mischief), who is on the outside looking in for a potential start in the GI Breeders' Cup Turf Sprint, went a half-mile in :47 flat (1/29) for trainer Richard Mandella.

Expected to breeze Friday is Classic contender White Abarrio (Race Day), whose move was postponed from Monday.
