Favored Covfefe, who is named after a famous Twitter gaffe by President Donald Trump in 2017, came in first thanks to a strong outside push.

The three-year-old outlasted hard-charging fellow three-year-old Bellafina, while longshot Dawn The Destroyer managed a third-place finish:

Spun to Run pulled off a massive upset over even-money favorite Omaha Beach, marking the first Breeders' Cup Dirt Mile win for both trainer Juan Carlos Guerrero and jockey Irad Ortiz Jr.

After Spun to Run went to the front early, Omaha Beach made his way through the field and got as high as second, but never posed a true threat to the winner:

Blue Chipper also wasn't much of a factor in a race that was dominated by Spun to Run, but the Flavien Prat-guided horse did manage a third-place finish.

Show: Sistercharlie (4-5) (Chad Brown, John Velazquez); x, x, $2.20; $180,000

Defending Breeders' Cup Filly & Mare Turf Sistercharlie was no match for Iridessa in this year's race despite being the prohibitive favorite.

Sistercharlie could only muster a third-place finish, while 13-1 Iridessa held off 9-2 Vasilika for the win after they both chased down Mirth late in the race:

Iridessa trainer Joseph O'Brien made history as well, becoming the youngest trainer to ever win a Breeders' Cup race at the age of 26.

Second-choice Mitole came from off the pace to chase down favorite Shancelot and pick up the win Saturday in the Breeders' Cup Sprint:

There wasn't much money to be made with the top two choices since they were the clear horses to beat, but Whitmore made things interesting by grabbing third at 19-1.

Uni flew past the lead pack down the stretch to surpass race leader Got Stormy and take home the TVG Mile:

Uni, Got Stormy and Circus Maximus were considered the top three favorites entering the Mile, and the chalk held as Uni and Got Stormy separated themselves from the field by race's end.

Chad Brown earned win and show honors as the trainer of Uni and Without Parole.

Show: Serengeti Empress (10-1) (Thomas M. Amoss, Flavien Prat); x, x, $6.00; $180,000

Blue Prize pulled off the upset over even-odds favorite Midnight Bisou to win the Distaff:

Serengeti Empress impressed by pacing the field for much of the race, but Blue Prize chased the leader down and held off a late Midnight Bisou charge for the victory.

Show: Anthony Van Dyck (3-1) (Aiden P. O'Brien, Ryan Moore); x, x, $4.00; $360,000

Bricks and Mortar made his case to be the Horse of the Year by winning his sixth start in an undefeated 2019 season at the Breeders' Cup Turf.

Bricks and Mortar entered the race as one of three favorites alongside 3-1 Anthony Van Dyck and 4-1 Old Persian, but it was 20-1 United who nearly upset the field. However, a late Bricks and Mortar charge led the undefeated horse to beat the challenger by a head.

With the win, trainer Chad Brown earned his second victory of the day, having also guided Uni in the Mile.

Show: Higher Power (6-1) (John W. Sadler, Flavien Prat); $6.00; $540,000

Vino Rosso beat pre-race favorite McKinzie with a strong closing run, but tragedy struck as Mongolian Groom suffered a left hind injury and was immediately taken to the on-site Equine Hospital at Santa Anita, per Dr. Al Ruggles in a post-race interview with NBC Sports.

Randy Moss of NBC Sports said that Mongolian Groom's injury did not appear to be minor.

As for the race, Jockey Irad Ortiz Jr. won his fourth Breeders' Cup event of the weekend. The victory also marked trainer Todd Pletcher's first at the Breeders' Cup.
