Racing Roundtable: Sierra Leone reinvigorates Classic prospects, Seismic Beauty strikes at Del Mar

August 5th, 2025

On this week's Racing Roundtable, Ashley Anderson, Vance Hanson, and James Scully debate who is the horse to fear in the Breeders' Cup Classic (G1): Whitney (G1) winner and defending champion Sierra Leone or Kentucky Derby (G1) and Belmont (G1) winner Sovereignty. And whether Seismic Beauty is the horse to beat in the Breeders' Cup Distaff (G1) following her brilliant win in the Clement L. Hirsch (G1) at Del Mar

The panel will also discuss other performances of note, including promising two-year-old winners.
