Saturday’s Insights: $500K Into Mischief Juvenile Kicks Off Career in Spa Opener

1st-SAR, $72K, Msw, 2yo, 5 1/2f, 1:10 p.m. ET

MO MISCHIEF (Into Mischief), purchased by Myracehorse.com and Spendthrift Farm for $500,000 after breezing a quarter in :21 at OBS March, makes his debut for Todd Pletcher. The 9-5 morning-line favorite is out of the multiple stakes-placed Montbrook mare Montessa G.

“He’s a horse that we really liked when we bought him,” said Spendthrift Farms’ General Manager Ned Toffey. “Saratoga is the best of the bests, it’s where people love to unveil their 2-year-olds and you better have your big boy pants on when you go to the starting gate at Saratoga.”

Fellow firster Momos (Distorted Humor), a $180,000 OBS March graduate (:21), was produced by a half-sister to GISWs Daddys Lil Darling (Scat Daddy) and Mongolian Saturday (Any Given Saturday). He is trained by Christophe Clement.

Repo Rocks (Tapiture), just a $70,000 KEESEP yearling, displays a flashy worktab for Hall of Famer Bill Mott for this debut run.

Catalog Available For R.D. Hubbard Online Thoroughbred Dispersal

The catalog for the dispersal of the late R.D. Hubbard's Thoroughbred assets is available now, offering 54 horses on ThoroughbredAuctions.com.

Bidding opens for the auction on Tuesday, July 21, and it closes the following Tuesday, July 28. All horses will be offered without reserve.

The catalog features weanlings, yearlings, 2-year-olds in training, horses of racing age, broodmares, and a stallion.

Among the offerings is Attila's Storm, a perennial leading sire in New Mexico who stands at A&A Ranch. The 18-year-old son of Forest Wildcat is a Grade 3 winner whose progeny earnings total in excess of $13.3 million. Attila's Storm was New Mexico's leading sire by earnings each year from 2016 to 2019.

Attila's Storm also accounts for several of the weanlings, yearlings, and horses in training – all New Mexico-bred – and he is the covering sire on many of the pregnant broodmares set to be on offer. Other sires represented among the younger offerings are Proceed, Marking, and Delhomme. First-year stallion Sporting Chance is also present in the draft of mares in foal.

Hubbard, who died in April at age 84, was the longtime owner of Ruidoso Downs until its sale in 2017, and he was the CEO of Hollywood Park in California during the 1990s. He was a successful owner and breeder in both the Thoroughbred and Quarter Horse realms, owning national-level competitors among both breeds.
