I want to welcome all of you to New Jersey<\/st1:place><\/st1:State> and today\u2019s Grade III the Unger over Stakes.\u00a0 <\/SPAN>Today\u2019s race features a very small field of just 5 horses competing for the prize purse of 125,000 dollars.\u00a0 <\/SPAN>Some may ask why the reason for the small field, but your answer can be found easily.\u00a0 <\/SPAN>It can be summed up in a three letter word, and that word is wet.\u00a0 <\/SPAN>That\u2019s right folks, we have Sloppy Dirt for today\u2019s race of a mile and three sixteenths.\u00a0 <\/SPAN>With out further talk about the weather, let\u2019s meet the smallest Grade III field you will ever witness.\u00a0 <\/SPAN>Folks, don\u2019t close your eyes, and don\u2019t blink, or you will miss it.<\/P>

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

PP #1.\u00a0 <\/SPAN>Hard Bark<\/B> is the luck winner of post position number one.\u00a0 <\/SPAN>He has been running well as of late, and is coming of a great performance in his last outing.\u00a0 <\/SPAN>He may only have 5 races under his belt, but after a quick switch to turf in races two and three, the switch back to turf was heaven for this boy.\u00a0 <\/SPAN>Since switching back to dirt, he is undefeated in two races with SP\u2019s of 89 and 96.\u00a0 <\/SPAN>Owner guagmire looks for this guys first Graded as well as Stakes win today.\u00a0 <\/SPAN>He will get jockey G. Anderson for the ride.\u00a0 <\/SPAN>Hard Bark is currently sitting at 6\/1.<\/P>

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

PP #2.\u00a0 <\/SPAN>Heartfire<\/B> will be shooting out of gate number two today.\u00a0 <\/SPAN>This 9\/5 co-favorite is owned by lenny13, and looks to improve on his last SP of 103.\u00a0 <\/SPAN>This colt\u2019s entire career of 6 races has been on the dirt, and he has shown that he likes it by winning three and placing second in two others.\u00a0 <\/SPAN>In his last race, also on sloppy dirt, this boy ran a whopping 103 SP and got first in a Grade I.\u00a0 <\/SPAN>Sticking with the wetness could be just what this guy wants.\u00a0 <\/SPAN>Jockey J. Benisz looks to take this guy up the money ladder with a win in today\u2019s race.<\/P>

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

PP #3.\u00a0 <\/SPAN>Sighing Desert<\/B> brings us to the middle of our preview today. \u00a0<\/SPAN>That\u2019s right folks, we are halfway done.\u00a0 <\/SPAN>Worldwide sends this colt out with seven races under his belt.\u00a0 <\/SPAN>After beginning his career on the grass, he made the switch to dirt in race three and has not looked back from there.\u00a0 <\/SPAN>SP\u2019s have been on the rise ever since, and he is looking to build off of his 99 SP last time out.\u00a0 <\/SPAN>This will not be his first test against graded company as he has been tested in his last two races with Graded runners.\u00a0 <\/SPAN>Sighing Desert will try to give jockey B. Heffernan the ride of his life as the horse is a 2\/1 shot in the morning line odds.<\/P>

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

PP #4.\u00a0 <\/SPAN>Eric\u2019s Fast<\/B> says it all about this guy.\u00a0 <\/SPAN>A 9\/5 shot in today\u2019s race, this guy had been tearing it up on a three race win streak before the sloppy dirt stopped him in his tracks last time out.\u00a0 <\/SPAN>SP\u2019s did not drop in that race though, and I feel that owner rikib is looking for his horses to improve on his sloppy dirt SP and see if this colt can\u2019t pull out a win in today\u2019s race.\u00a0 <\/SPAN>In seven career races, Eric\u2019s fast has won all but two, and finished second in his third career race.\u00a0 <\/SPAN>Jockey R. Case hopes to continue to move this guy up the stakes points ladder.<\/P>

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

PP #5.\u00a0 <\/SPAN>Nobiz Like Mybiz<\/B> is last in today\u2019s field.\u00a0 <\/SPAN>This colt from the catylyst stable is a 7\/1 shot in today\u2019s race.\u00a0 <\/SPAN>He has been running well as of late, and had won his race two races back before running into a sloppy wall last time out.\u00a0 <\/SPAN>SP\u2019s only dropped slightly in that last race, and I think the added ground will be a test for this guy as he did not take to it the first route he ran.\u00a0 <\/SPAN>Nobiz Like Mybiz has a total of eight career races under his belt, finishing first in two, second in one, and third in two others.\u00a0 <\/SPAN>He will get jockey C. Hargain to ride, and maybe even pull off the upset in today\u2019s race.<\/P>

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

Well there you have it folks, yes I do realize that there have been bullets that have traveled slower than we did through this field of horses today.\u00a0 <\/SPAN>With such a small field, it is really anybody\u2019s game.\u00a0 <\/SPAN>I feel that you have to like the three lower odd horses to finish first, second, and third in today\u2019s race.\u00a0 <\/SPAN>With such young horses, it is up for grabs here in New Jersey<\/st1:place><\/st1:State> though today.\u00a0 <\/SPAN>I \u00a0<\/SPAN>do think that Heartfire should have no problem going two for two on the sloppy dirt today.\u00a0 <\/SPAN>This has been Dylan with you prerace preview for the Unger over Stakes.\u00a0 <\/SPAN>I want to thank all of you for reading my article today, and wish every trainer luck in this weeks races.\u00a0 <\/SPAN>Remember for all of your sim racing articles head on over to the BTB forum.\u00a0 <\/SPAN>Thanks again, stay dry, and let the racing begin!!\u00a0\u00a0 <\/SPAN><\/P><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
