DOUBLE JOKE (c, 2, Practical Joke–Double Date, by Rahy) is one of two in this heat for Godolphin and was acquired for $80,000 out of the 2020 Fasig-Tipton November Sale. The chestnut is out of a half-sister to Canadian Horse of the Year Peaks and Valleys (Mt. Livermore) and the late Alternate (Seattle Slew), the dam of GISW Higher Power (Medaglia d'Oro) and MGSW 'TDN Rising Star' Alternation (Distorted Humor), who passed away at Pin Oak Stud Oct. 15. Godolphin is also represented by its homebred FROST CITY (c, 2, Frosted–Texas Twirl, by Hard Spun), the first foal out of an unraced half-sister to MGSW & MGISP Cowboy Cal (Giant's Causeway).

JASPER ROYAL (c, 2, Violence–Sumthingtotalkabt, by Mutakddim) is the latest to make the races for his now 19-year-old dam, whose notable produce include GSW and GI Breeders' Cup Turf Sprint runner-up Lady Shipman (Midshipman), the dam of Golden Pal (Uncle Mo), who will be favored to repeat in the Turf Sprint at Keeneland in 16 days' time; and MSP Just Talkin (Midshipman).

COLLECTANEA (c, 2, Collected–Dance With Kitten, by Kitten's Joy), a half-brother to recent dirt maiden winner Suetonius (Carpe Diem), gets his career started on the grass, and with good reason, as his dam is a full-sister to two-time GI Woodford Reserve Turf Classic hero Divisidero, who stands alongside Collected at Airdrie Stud. Dance With Kitten relocated to Japan in 2020 and is the dam of a yearling colt by Yoshida (Jpn) and a weanling filly by two-time Horse of the Year Kitasan Black (Jpn). B-Shadai Corporation (KY)
