Sim Magic \u2013 Breeders Bowl<\/P>
It\u2019s one special day in the sim, Breeders Bowl Day, and it\u2019s less than 3 weeks away, so today I wanna use Sim Magic to take a flash back to last year, 2007. The Breeders Bowl took place Week 3385 in New Jersey, 11 Main Races had been scheduled and brought 11 different winners, all of them crowned Champions of the Sim. Today I wanna use Sim Magic to see how some of these Sim Champions handled their racing careers afterwards, let\u2019s see how 2008 has been to the 2007 Breeders Bowl Winners. Let\u2019s start off with the most important of them all, the Breeders Bowl Classic<\/B>: Solar Song<\/SPAN><\/B> was all Game, and won with a 118 ahead of Awegustus and Otto Causes, the 6yo Deputy Minister Horse now has the following Stats: 49 Races \u2013 21 Wins \u2013 16,366,150$ http:\/\/www.simulatedsports.net\/hr\/runtime\/prettyhorse.asp?hossnum=84460&name=junk&lg=&idno=&authcode=&passcard=09090909090909090909&maxer=true<\/A> But it was a tough 2008 for him, after the Breeders Bowl he continued his winning ways, with a Stakes win at Wisconsin and another Grade 1 Win, in the Topicount Special in late December. His connections decided to bring him back to the racetrack as a 6yo, and he rewarded them early on with nice results, topped by 2nd<\/SUP> place finished in the Grade 1 Sand Castle Classic and the Grade 1 Maryland Special Handicap, but he was denied another Grade 1 win as a 6yo. He then started to slowly move backwards in his track results, in the Smackdown Race over 10f he finished 5th<\/SUP>, and in the Equinics he was moved to the Marathon and feded to 11th<\/SUP>, his last race the Bob Woodward Memorial brought a very dissapointing 10th<\/SUP> place. It looks he has lost a step, he\u2019s still ranked 2nd<\/SUP> among dirt routers, and if he chooses to take another shot at the 2008 Breeders Bowl Classic, he won\u2019t be denied the entry. Next up the Breeders Bowl Turf: Lex Luthor <\/SPAN><\/B>ran a 111 and scored ahead of Ottoman Turks and Horseshoe Bay. The now 5yo Empire Maker Horse stands at: 36 Races \u2013 19 Wins \u2013 7,512,166$ http:\/\/www.simulatedsports.net\/hr\/runtime\/prettyhorse.asp?hossnum=98045&name=junk&lg=&idno=&authcode=&passcard=09090909090909090909&maxer=true<\/A> He finished 2007 with a win in a Stakes Race and a 4th<\/SUP> Place in the Grade 1 Allied Assault Handicap. He then started 2008 on a way easier route, winning 2 Stakes Races over 10 and 13f, which indeed have been his last wins for the year. The big race, the Sand Castle Golden Turf saw him finish 11th<\/SUP>, via a surface switch and Stakes Races he prepped for the Equinics. But in the 13f Race he was taken the lead on the stretch and finished 3rd<\/SUP>, still a classy result, but no win, his last Stakes event saw an even worser 4th<\/SUP> place. Like the Classic winner, it looks like he lost a step, but I wouldn\u2019t count him out, come Breeders Bowl Day, where he finished 2nd<\/SUP> in 2006 and 1st<\/SUP> in 2007. The Breeders Bowl Distaff: Sweet Sister Mercy <\/SPAN><\/B>won ahead of Otto History and Arawaza, she is a now 5yo Kingmambo Mare: 33 Races \u2013 10 Wins \u2013 2,486,500$ http:\/\/www.simulatedsports.net\/hr\/runtime\/prettyhorse.asp?hossnum=111300&name=junk&lg=&idno=&authcode=&passcard=09090909090909090909&maxer=true<\/A> Like for her male counterparts 2008 hasn\u2019t all been good for her, but she is still among the Elite older Dirt Routers, Ranked 2nd<\/SUP> in her division. She finished 2007 with a 13th<\/SUP> and a 9th<\/SUP> place, and it looked like the 4yo had run out of gas, however, she turned 5 and returned to winning ways, going for the Grade 1 Orange Blossom and the Grade 2 Painful Thorn Stakes, to round out her Spring Campaign. The Summer, however, saw her struggle, a 3rd<\/SUP> Place in the Smackdown Event and a 6th<\/SUP> at the Equinics was not as good as could be expected of this superhorse, but she presented herself in Breeders Bowl Form, when finishing 3rd<\/SUP> in the Superfilly Handicap, with a nice 110, it has to be seen, if she can keep the challenge of the 3yo and 4yo fillies, but she still seems to be game. The Breeders Bowl Turf Distaff: Magical Mia <\/SPAN><\/B>ran a 115 to beat Nerf Herder and Kneel Before Zod, she is a 6yo Giant\u2019s Causeway Mare, and to all race watchers disappointment was retired 2 weeks ago, she finished her career at:
