Mundaye Call (Into Mischief), an eye-catching winner in track-record time of the Runhappy Audubon Oaks at Ellis Park Aug. 9, seeks her first graded score in Saturday’s GIII Miss Preakness S. at Pimlico.
After recording a field-best 100 Beyer Speed Figure in that front-running, 7 1/4-length decision, the OXO Equine colorbearer got caught up in a torrid pace in Churchill’s GII Eight Belles S. Sept. 4 and tired to fourth.
The 7-5 morning-line favorite takes on a pair of ‘TDN Rising Stars’ here, including the field’s lone Grade I winner Wicked Whisper (Liam’s Map).
A close second behind Fly On Angel (Palace Malice) in the GIII Charles Town Oaks Aug. 28, Wicked Whisper looks for her first win since capturing Belmont’s GI Frizette S. last October.
‘Rising Star’ Ain’t No Elmers (Goldencents), a sharp winner of her first two attempts at Fair Grounds earlier this term, ended a three-race losing streak with an optional claiming score at Churchill Downs Sept. 2. She is a perfect three-for-three at the six-furlong distance of the Miss Preakness.
