About
New York Special is a 3yo dk b/br from the United States trained by Mark E. Casse. It is by Curlin out of Achalaya and has logged one win in its career. On 8 June 2026 at Saratoga, it captured its most valuable victory, collecting the $100,000 Md purse. The horse has been a profitable pick for bettors, and a career‑long backing would have returned 117% on investment.
