Betting With, and Against, White Abarrio in the 2025 Mr. Prospector Stakes

2023 Breeders’ Cup Classic (G1) winner #1 White Abarrio (1-1) is the one to beat in Saturday’s $150,000 Mr. Prospector (G3) at Gulfstream Park. 

White Abarrio – With

• $20 exacta 2 with 1 ($20)
• $10 trifecta 2 with 1 with 4,6 ($20)

White Abarrio – Against

• $20 win #2 Knightsbridge ($20)
• $7 trifecta 2 with 1 with 4,6 ($14)
• $3 trifecta 2 with 4,6 with 1 ($6)

A total of eight have been entered for the seven-furlong dash, but course specialist White Abarrio is surely the one to beat, partly due to his 10-8-1-0 mark on the oval. The son of Race Day has accumulated more than $7 million in earnings in advance of his first run since the summer, and he will be difficult to upend with his top performance despite receiving a tricky rail assignment. Irad Ortiz, Jr. will be in the saddle. 

Bill Mott’s #2 Knightsbridge (7-5) has never run a bad one in his five-race career and peaked last time in his first with blinkers when registering a 104 Brisnet Speed number in an allowance romp at Aqueduct. By Nyquist, the Godolphin homebred has room to improve, being lightly raced in his second run since February, and the top prospect comes in with a bullet half-mile move at Payson Park in preparation for his third run at this venue. The four-year-old colt figures to be prominent throughout with Junior Alvarado in the irons. 

#6 Hold My Bourbon (15-1) is not super consistent, but the gray is capable of running big on his best day for Joseph. The four-year-old son of Anchor Down cuts back in distance after leading to the turn for home and then giving away in the lane of the Harlan’s Holiday (G3) here most recently, and the Kentucky-bred will relish the move back to seven-eighths in this spot. Tyler Gaffalione will be in the irons. 

Multiple stakes winner #4 Super Chow (20-1) might not be as good as he once was, but the $980,000 earner really likes Gulfstream, and he could fire a big one while coming in fresh off the layoff. The five-year-old son of Lord Nelson will be involved from the opening bell with Jorge Ruiz in the controls.
