Bayern held off the challenge of English challenger Toast of New York to win the $5m (£3.13m) Breeders' Cup Classic - America's richest race.


Bayern, trained by three-time Kentucky Derby winner Bob Baffert, led from the start at Santa Anita, California, and tried to kick on turning from home.


Toast of New York, ridden by Jamie Spencer and trained by Jamie Osborne, just failed to get past the winner.


But Bayern had to wait for a stewards' inquiry before the win was confirmed.


The only European-trained winner on Saturday's second day of the event, known as the thoroughbred world championships, was the French challenger Karakontie, who beat fellow French hope Anodin and the David Simcock-trained Trade Storm in the Breeders' Cup Mile.


The Richard Hannon-trained Toronado, who led early on, faded in the home stretch.
