[1]Five New York-breds were entered Monday for the 39th edition of the Breeders’ Cup World Championships this weekend at Keeneland Race Course, with four into the main draw of their races and another on the also-eligible list.

The action for the Empire State contingent starts with a pair of runners on the Future Stars Friday program – You’re My Girl and Curly Larry and Mo.

Gatsas Stables, R. A. Hill Stable and Hidden Brook Farm’s You’re My Girl, a daughter of Overanalyze bred by James G. Doyle, drew post 2 for the $2 million Breeders’ Cup Juvenile. Second last time out in the Grade 1 Frizette, You’re My Girl is listed at 12-1 on the morning line with John Velazquez named to ride for trainer John Terranova.

George Sharp’s Curly Larry and Mo, a maiden winner Oct. 15 at Keeneland, drew post 2 for the $1 million Breeders’ Cup Juvenile Turf. Bred by Hidden Lake Farm and Donna Bernhard, the 2-year-old son of Mo Town will be ridden by Francisco Arrieta for trainer Caio Caramori.

Three New York-breds are entered for Championship Saturday – Sterling Silver, Dancing Buck and Red Knight.

Mark Anderson’s Sterling Silver runs early in the day in the third race, the $1 million Breeders’ Cup Filly and Mare Sprint. Bred by Mallory and Karen Mort, the 3-year-old daughter of Cupid drew post 9 of 13 for the 7-furlong Filly and Mare Sprint and is 30-1 on the morning line for jockey Javier Castellano and trainer Tom Albertrani.

J & N Stables and Diamond M Stable’s Dancing Buck, winner of the Grade 3 Belmont Turf Sprint last time out, is on the also-eligible list for the $1 million Breeders’ Cup Turf Sprint. Bred by J & N Stables and trained by Michelle Nevin, the 4-year-old War Dancer gelding could draw into the race with one withdrawal.

Trinity Farm’s homebred Red Knight goes in the next-to-last championship event, the $4 million Longines Breeders’ Cup Turf. The 8-year-old Pure Prize gelding picks up the services of jockey Luis Saez for the first time and is 20-1 on the morning line for trainer Mike Maker.

Multiple graded stakes winner and millionaire Warrior’s Charge will enter stud in 2023 at Irish Hill & Dutchess Views Stallions LLC in Stillwater. The 6-year-old son of Munnings will stand his first season for $5,000.

Campaigned for five seasons by Ten Strike Racing and Madaket Stables, Warrior’s Charge won six of 22 starts with three seconds and four thirds and earnings of $1,016,690.

Trained by Brad Cox, Warrior’s Charge finished fourth in the 2019 Preakness Stakes before victories as a 4-year-old in the Grade 3 Razorback Handicap at Oaklawn Park and Grade 3 Philip H. Iselin Stakes at Monmouth Park. He placed in two other stakes and finished fourth in the Grade 1 Metropolitan Handicap in 2020 at Belmont Park.

Bred by Al Shaquab Racing and out of the stakes-placed Broken Vow mare Battling Brook, Warrior’s Charge is a half-brother to the stakes-placed Warrior’s Battle and a full-brother to the unraced 2-year-old Warrior’s Vow who sold for $200,000 at last year’s Keeneland September yearling sale.

“Warriors Charge really was an exceptional talent,” Liz Crow, manager for Ten Strike Racing, told BloodHorse. “He showed brilliance in the mornings and ran big races in the Grade 1 Met Mile and Grade 1 Preakness as well as being a multiple graded stakes winner. He was sound and consistent and is a phenomenal horse physically. He provides the only opportunity to breed to a son of the great Munnings in New York and based on his physical, I am excited to see his progeny at future sales and races.”

Crow added that Ten Strike would support Warrior’s Charge, who is available for inspection.
