St Nicholas Abbey faces 11 rivals and will break from stall three as he bids to defend his crown in the US$3million Breeders' Cup Turf.

Aidan O'Brien's charge was a brilliant winner of the race last year and he will again bid to bounce back from Prix de l'Arc de Triomphe disappointment on the American stage.

Main market rival Point Of Entry has the rail draw in one.

Turf: Point of Entry (1), Turbo Compressor (2), St Nicholas Abbey (3), Treasure Beach (4), Shareta (5), Cogito (6), Little Mike (7), Kindergarden Kid (8), Dullahan (9), Optimizer (10), Slim Shadey (11), Trailblazer (12).
