Beholder out of Breeders’ Cup Classic after bleeding (The Associated Press)
Beholder is out of the Breeders’ Cup Classic after she bled Thursday following her morning gallop at Keeneland. Beholder was the early 3-1 second choice behind American Pharoah, who is running for the last time. Trainer Richard Mandella attributed the bleeding to the fever Beholder developed when she arrived in Kentucky last week.
