BY RYAN MARTIN, NYRA PRESS OFFICE ______SARATOGA SPRINGS, NY—Bredenbury (Ire) will try to build on a last out winning stakes effort when taking on eight other 3-year- old fillies in Friday's eighth running of the $100,000 Coronation Cup going five-and-a-half furlongs over the Mellon turf at Saratoga Race Course. Owned by Andrew Stone, the chestnut daughter of Night of Thunder did not find the winner's circle in the United States until taking the Lady Shipman on June 21 over Belmont's inner turf course, where she tracked a swift pace in second, took command at the three-sixteenths pole and won by length-and-a-quarter. Previously conditioned by David Simcock in Great Britain, Bredenbury made her first three starts for trainer Graham Motion going two turns, with her North American debut taking place in the Chelsey Flower at Aqueduct, where she was sixth to eventual graded stakes-winner Speaktomeofsummer. "We felt like shortening her up was going to do the trick and she seemed to handle it very well last time," Motion said.
