This weekend we are headed to Arizona where they will be hosting the G1, Scottsdale Stayer on the card this Saturday afternoon.  It\u2019s going to be a hot one under the Arizona heat for these eight fillies and mares that will turn out at post time to run a grueling 16 furlongs across the fast dirt track.  The lineup for this race looks well matched and it should be a pretty tight race when they break from their gates this weekend.  The morning line odds have been released and the post positions have been drawn.  Let us now take a preview of the field of eight horses that have entered the G1, The Scottsdale Stayer.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Coming out first we will see this 5 year old Bay Mare (WAR FRONT x GALILEO (IRE) x GONE WEST) that is a two time EOY Award winner. In the past two seasons you would have to go back to June of 2022 to find her only miss hitting the boards.  She is very consistent in here races but in two starts this year she has not yet made a trip to the winners circle.  Last time we saw her on the track was in Arkansas going 14 furlongs in the G1, The Little Rock Stayer.  She was closing nicely down the final stretch and weaved herself into third when she crossed the wire with a 111 speed rating.  The owner continues to look for more good things out of his well rested mare this weekend when they head out in the post parade representing the Empire State Racing residency.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Next, we will see this 5 year old Brown Mare who is a scratch bred (ARROGATE x DEPUTY MINISTER x ALYDAR) that has hit the boards in graded races and earned her GP badge, but that has not found a win at this level of racing.  Two starts back she would get the win in a Listed Stakes, Military Horse Dirt Mare Endurance.  She made her most recent start in Arkansas where she would go 14 furlongs in the G1, The Little Rock Stayer.  She ran fairly flat in this race and would miss the boards as she crossed the wire in fifth with a 108 speed rating.  The owner would really like to see this horse get her first graded win this weekend when they come out representing Latinos Del Mundo<\/p>\n\n\n\n

This is a 5 year old Roan Mare (TAPIT x CANDY RIDE x KINGMAMBO) that is a multiple graded winner.  This season she started off with a win in the G3, The Miss Bourbon Street and then followed that up with a second place finish in the G1, The Thumb Route.  She would make her most recent start in Arkansas where she returned to defend her crown in the G1, The Little Rock Stayer.  She put up a good fight, but she would fail in keeping her title as she crossed the wire in fourth with a 108 speed rating.  Last year this horse ran fifth in the G1, The Scottsdale Stayers and the owner is in hope to see her improve over what she did last year in this race when they head out of the paddock representing the Midas residency.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

This is a 4 year old Bay Filly who is a scratch bred (AMERICAN PHAROAH x A.P. INDY x MR. PROSPECTOR) that has been running well this season for the owner with only one miss on the boards in five starts this year.  Her most recent start would be the biggest feather in her hat when she would come out in Minnesota in the G3, The Saint Paul where she would travel 16 furlongs and get a gate to wire win.  At the third call she was over ten lengths out in front.  She would hold on to get the win by 4 strides.  This horse likes to run at or near the front.  If she can get out of the gate quick and put some distance on this field early, she could have a shot here when she comes out representing the Down Under Racing residency.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Next, we have this 5 year old Bay Mare (EMPIRE MAKER x DISTORTED HUMOR x STORM CAT) who is out of EOY Award winning mare, Angel\u2019s Trumpets.  This horse is a G2 winner and is in the hunt for her first G1 win.  Earlier this season she would get her G2 badge when she started off the season with a win in the G2, The Pittsburg Stayer.  Thus far she has only one miss in four starts this year.  Last time on the track we saw her in Arkansas where she would go 14 furlongs in the G1, The Little Rock Stayer.  She put up a good fight here but would finish second with a 112 speed rating.  The owner is in hope that she can get the job done and collect her first G1 win this Saturday when she comes out representing the British And European Racing Club residency.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Here we have a 6 year old Light Grey Mare (TAPIT x SMART STRIKE x MONTJEU) that earned here GP badge early last year in 2022.  In her most recent starts she has been running mainly in Listed Stakes races and has been winless but does have a couple of hits on the boards.  Last time out we saw this horse on the track in West Virginia going 16 furlongs in a Listed Stakes, Xtremely Gold Dirt Mare Endurance.  She found a spot in fourth just out of the gate and that is where she would stay until she crossed the wire with a 101 speed rating.  She is making a big jump up in Class this weekend and will need to show up with her best effort in tow when she come out at post time to representing Blazing Saddles.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

This is a 5 year old Bay Mare (GALILEO (IRE) x GIANT’S CAUSEWAY x SMART STRIKE) who been running consistently in the top four in her most recent starts going back to September of last year.  She is a multiple G2 winner and is in the hunt to find a trip to the winner’s circle in a G1 event.  Last time we saw her on the track she would come out in Hong Kong going 16 furlongs in the G2, The Breakdown.  At the top of the final stretch, she would take off in this race and charge for the wire and get the win by almost six lengths with a 107 speed rating and add to her list of graded wins.  The owner feels she is ready for the race here in Arizona this weekend and is in hope she can find the wire first in her Saturday afternoon outing when she heads out of the paddock representing the East-West Connection residency.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Breaking from the final gate in this race will be this 5 year old Brown Mare who is a scratch bred (EMPIRE MAKER x DEPUTY MINISTER x CURLIN) that has been running very consistently in her starts.  Earlier this season she would pick up her first G1 win in the G1, The Thumb Route at the distance of 16 furlongs.  Since that time, she has continued to run well at this 16 furlong distance this season.  Last time out we saw her in Hong Kong going 16 furlongs in the G2, The Breakdown.  At the third call she was up on the lead by one and a half, but in the stretch for home she would be caught and left behind as she crossed the wire in second more than five back with a 104 speed rating.  The owner knows his horse will meet up with a tough crowd this weekend and he is in hope she can keep her record intact with another hit on the boards this weekend when they make their way over to their post draw representing the GR Simsters residency.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Good luck to all owners and horses!<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n
