The presence of classy Europeans Mastercraftsman and Sweet Hearth to the pre-entry field for the $1-million Breeders’ Cup Dirt Mile (gr. I) on Nov. 7 gives the runners from the powerful Godolphin stable the prospect of some tough competition. 

As expected, Godolphin and trainer Saeed bin Suroor pre-entered four in the Dirt Mile—Regal Ransom  , Girolamo  , Midshipman  , and Pyro. All four are viewed as contenders.
