Gio Ponti Odds 2009 Breeders' Cup: The 2009 Breeders' Cup Betting Odds makers at Sportsbook.com have Gio Ponti at 12-1 odds to win the Breeders’ Cup Classic. Christophe Clement had high praise indeed for Gio Ponti as he will be the 18th horse that the trainer starts in Breeders’ Cup races when he leads the 4yo colt over on Saturday when he said “He’s a very good horse. I am sure of that. This is the best horse I have ever trained.”
Clement has a long list of Graded stakes winners on his resume and is the only trainer to have won the prestigious Beverly D. at Arlington Park three times, but he hasn’t won an Eclipse Award. “I’m a lucky guy. I’ve had many, many good horses but I have never trained a champion,” he said. He’s hoping that will change on Saturday.
Gio Ponti as the winner of this year’s Arlington Million, Manhattan Handicap, Man o’ War, and Kilroe Handicap is widely hailed as North America’s best turf horse, but Clement remains solidly convinced that his decision running Gio Ponti in the Classic on the synthetic track will be successful. Ramon Dominguez, aboard Gio Ponti: “He handled the going well. He just got a little tired at the end.” On his most recent race.
