Let\u2019s hear it for New York<\/st1:place><\/st1:State>!\u00a0 <\/SPAN>The lyrics of the famous Jay-Z song are still ringing in my ears.\u00a0 <\/SPAN>Dreams will be made today in New York<\/st1:place><\/st1:State> as we get set for the Grade I The Priceless Stakes.\u00a0 <\/SPAN>This big race is the 12th<\/SUP> on the New York<\/st1:place><\/st1:State> card today and will feature just six fillies and mares that are three years old.\u00a0 <\/SPAN>These girls will be going six furlongs on the fast dirt in hopes of cashing in on a piece of the 300,000 dollar purse.\u00a0 <\/SPAN>The long shot sits at 7\/1 and it looks to be a great and entertaining field that we will have run today.\u00a0 <\/SPAN>So now, ladies and gentleman, let\u2019s meet our pretty little ladies.\u00a0 <\/SPAN>\u00a0\u00a0<\/SPAN><\/P>

\u00a0<\/o:p><\/P>

1<\/B>.\u00a0 <\/SPAN>Given Away Cash, (Any Given Saturday X Dynaformer X Seattle<\/st1:place><\/st1:City> Slew)<\/B> will be out of gate 1 today coming in at odds of 6\/1.\u00a0 <\/SPAN>Oddsman will send this girl onto her first graded attempt of her career after bursting out of the races she has been in and running a 101 speed figure.\u00a0 <\/SPAN>This girl won the first three races of her career in a maiden special weight and two listed stakes.\u00a0 <\/SPAN>She then went on to not win another until two races back where she defeated an NW1T allowance field of four.\u00a0 <\/SPAN>Her last race though was the breakout race where she posted her career best speed figure of 101 while placing second in an open allowance.\u00a0 <\/SPAN>Prior to running the 101 speed figure, her best speed figure of her career was a 92 set in January of this year.\u00a0 <\/SPAN>The big question is will the speeds continue to rise which will have to be the case if this girl wants to find herself in the winners circle.<\/P>

\u00a0<\/o:p><\/P>

2<\/B>. Cuore E L\u2019Anima (Unbridled\u2019s Song X Storm Cat X Alydar) <\/B>will come out of gate two at odds of 7\/1.\u00a0 <\/SPAN>This girl is the long shot in the race today, although she is coming off one of the best performances of her life.\u00a0 <\/SPAN>She has just seven career races under her belt, but has won four of them and placed in two.\u00a0 <\/SPAN>Her only falter was in the first race of her career where she finished 6th<\/SUP> in a maiden special weight.\u00a0 <\/SPAN>Two races back started the recent winning streak as she took down a NW3L allowance field of five while running a 98 speed figure.\u00a0 <\/SPAN>Owner ticketman2 said what the hay and entered this girl into a Grade III last time out.\u00a0 <\/SPAN>At odds of 10\/1 she took down the graded field of ten while matching that 98 speed figure.\u00a0 <\/SPAN>She will be looking to make it two in a row here today, and the question with this one is will she be able to match and even improve upon the speed figures she has been running.\u00a0 <\/SPAN><\/P>

\u00a0<\/o:p><\/P>

3<\/B>.\u00a0 <\/SPAN>Awesome Princess, (Awesome Again X Kingmambo X Danzig<\/st1:place>) <\/B>is a 3\/1 shot in today\u2019s race.\u00a0 <\/SPAN>Owner londoner sends this girl out to her first Grade I attempt after picking up her fist graded win two races back.\u00a0 <\/SPAN>This girl has had an interesting start to her career of big spurts followed by a few disappointing runs.\u00a0 <\/SPAN>All that changed in the beginning of this year as she rattled of five straight wins including one allowance, three listed stakes, and one graded victory.\u00a0 <\/SPAN>Her last race featured her toughest test yet as she was entered into a Grade II field of 11.\u00a0 <\/SPAN>She ran her heart out and posted a 99 speed figure while finishing fourth in the race.\u00a0 <\/SPAN>Her best speed figure came two races back where she won the Grade III Warfare Farm Stakes by 2 \u00bc lengths while running a speed figure of 101.\u00a0 <\/SPAN>Will she top her highest speed figure is the question on everyone\u2019s mind.\u00a0 <\/SPAN><\/P>

\u00a0<\/o:p><\/P>

4<\/B>.\u00a0 <\/SPAN>Day Of Prosperity (Corinthian X Forty Niner X Deputy Minister)<\/B> is the co-second favorite in today\u2019s race coming into the race with odds of 3\/1.\u00a0 <\/SPAN>This girl started her career off on a hot streak winning her first four races.\u00a0 <\/SPAN>There is only one problem, and that is that in the 11 races since she has not won a single race and has hit the board just five times.\u00a0 <\/SPAN>Owner mtkholding will look for her to find the winners circle as she desperately needs to find some way to get a win.\u00a0 <\/SPAN>She has not posted a speed figure of over 100 yet in her career, but she has run two of the best speed figures of her young career in the last two races.\u00a0 <\/SPAN>Two races back was a Grade III attempt in which she ran third out of eleven horses and finished with a speed figure of 99.\u00a0 <\/SPAN>It was then back into the listed stakes last time out where she finished third again running a speed figure of 98.\u00a0 <\/SPAN>If she can run a speed figure of over 100, she has a shot in this one.\u00a0 <\/SPAN>\u00a0<\/SPAN>\u00a0\u00a0<\/SPAN>\u00a0\u00a0<\/SPAN><\/P>

\u00a0<\/o:p><\/P>

5<\/B>.\u00a0 <\/SPAN>Legal Embrace, (Stormy Atlantic X Saint Ballado X Carson City<\/st1:place><\/st1:City>)<\/B> is also the co-second favorite in today\u2019s race also with odds of 3\/1.\u00a0 <\/SPAN>This girl won her maiden special weight debut and hasn\u2019t seen anything but graded company since.\u00a0 <\/SPAN>In the 11 races since that debut, she has raced in 4 Grade III\u2019s, 4 Grade II\u2019s and 3 Grade I\u2019s.\u00a0 <\/SPAN>The only type of race she does not have a win in is the Grade I, and she will be looking for her first here today.\u00a0 <\/SPAN>Her last three races have been interesting as she ran 1st<\/SUP> three races back while winning a Grade II with a speed figure of 104.\u00a0 <\/SPAN>It was then back to back 7th<\/SUP> and 8th<\/SUP> place finishes where her speed figures were only 94 and 93 respectively.\u00a0 <\/SPAN>She will be looking to get back on track in this one, and if she can run like she did three back, she will definitely have a chance.\u00a0 <\/SPAN><\/P>

\u00a0<\/o:p><\/P>

6.\u00a0 <\/SPAN>Vicenza<\/st1:place><\/st1:City> (Bernardini X Ghostzapper X Seeking The Gold)<\/B> is the favorite in today\u2019s race with odds of 5\/2 and why shouldn\u2019t she be!\u00a0 <\/SPAN>This girl has 12 career races under her belt and has won nine of those races.\u00a0 <\/SPAN>She has won her last two and has two graded wins in her career.\u00a0 <\/SPAN>Her last couple of races have been well as she won a listed stakes race two races back taking the field of five with a 98 speed figure.\u00a0 <\/SPAN>It was her last race that really sticks out though as she took a field of six horses down in a Grade III race where she tied her career best speed figure of 102.\u00a0 <\/SPAN>Her previous race of running a 102 had been a listed stakes win in March of this year.\u00a0 <\/SPAN>The question with this girl is will she have enough left in the tank to get win number three.<\/P>

\u00a0<\/o:p><\/P>

I think that this will be a great Grade I race today.\u00a0 <\/SPAN>I think that it will come down to the wire, but Vicenza just looks like to much for the rest of the field to have an opportunity so that is who I will take.\u00a0 <\/SPAN>I want to thank you for reading this pre-race article and encourage you to head on over the the BTB forum, found on the forums page, for all of your sim racing news.\u00a0 <\/SPAN>I\u2019m Dylan and I want to thank you once again and say, good luck to all trainers! \u00a0<\/SPAN><\/P><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
