Filly on a Mission: Daughter of Into Mischief Garners Rising Stardom for Baffert

Baoma Corporation’s $750,000 Fasig-Tipton Saratoga buy Private Mission (Into Mischief) led home a one-two finish of promising fillies for the Bob Baffert barn Sunday to earn the ‘TDN Rising Star’ distinction. Backed as the even-money choice off a series of works that had churned up some buzz (click for XBTV video of Oct. 5 breeze in company with $1.3-million colt American Admiral {American Pharoah}), the bay showed good early speed to sit in second locked on to the pacesetter. She took over after a :45.23 half, and only stablemate Frosteria (Frosted–Hystericalady) could come close to keeping up with her at that point. Private Mission had more to give, however, and cruised home a geared-down 1 3/4-length winner. Frosteria was 6 3/4 lengths clear of the third finisher.

Dam Private Gift, who was a two-turn stakes winner, was a $2.3-million purchase by Greg Goodman’s Mt. Brilliant while in foal to A.P. Indy at the 2008 Fasig-Tipton November sale. In addition to Secret Someone (A. P. Indy), MSW & GSP, $409,301, she is responsible for the dam of last year’s GI Alabama S. heroine Dunbar Road (Quality Road). Private Gift is a half to GI Kentucky Oaks heroine Secret Status (A.P. Indy). Her Honor Code yearling filly sold to BSW/Crow for $240,000 at last month’s Keeneland September sale. Private Gift was not bred back for 2020, but visited Candy Ride (Arg) this season. Baffert trains progeny by the nation’s leading sire Into Mischief that include GI Kentucky Derby hero Authentic and leading sophomore filly Gamine.

Spendthrift Releases Reduced Stud Fees for ’21

Spendthrift Farm announced Tuesday the reduction of stud fees for most of its current roster of stallions set to stand at the Lexington-based farm in 2021. Leading sire Into Mischief (Harlan’s Holiday) heads the roster at a previously announced fee of $225,000 S&N. Booked full, he represents the only stallion with an increased fee in 2021. Top sire Malibu Moon (A.P. Indy) and second-season sire Omaha Beach will both stand for $35,000 S&N. Malibu Moon stood for $60,000, while Omaha Beach stood for $45,000 in 2020. Fellow second-season sire Vino Rosso (Curlin), winner of last fall’s GI Breeders’ Cup Classic who stood for $30,000 this season, will stand for $25,000 S&N. Multiple Grade I-winning millionaire Vekoma (Candy Ride {Arg}) will also join Spendthrift for the 2021 season following a start in the Breeders’ Cup next month at Keeneland. His fee will be announced upon retirement.

“Breeders are the backbone of our industry, and the bottom line is that stud farms only go as breeders go. We are all in this together,” said B. Wayne Hughes. “Our team recognizes the challenges of the times and how the entire breeding community has been affected this year. If we had room to lower a stud fee, we did it. We wish every participant in this great industry the best of luck and the best of health in 2021.”

Multiple Grade I-winning juvenile Bolt d’Oro (Medaglia d’Oro), 2019 Eclipse Champion Sprinter Mitole (Eskenderya), and the Northern Hemisphere’s leading third-crop Sire Goldencents (Into Mischief) will all stand for $15,000 S&N. All three stood for $25,000 in 2020.

Additionally, fees have been reduced for the following stallions (all S&N); Jimmy Creed (Distorted Humo) and Lord Nelson (Pulpit) ($10,000); Cross Traffic (Unbridled’s Song) and Maximus Mischief (Into Mischief) ($7,500); Brody’s Cause (Giant’s Causeway), Cinco Charlie (Indian Charlie), Cloud Computing (Maclean’s Music), Coal Front (Stay Thirsty), Dominus (Smart Strike), Free Drop Billy (Union Rags), Gormley (Malibu Moon), Hit It a Bomb (War Front), More Spirit (Eskendereya) and Temple City (Dynaformer) ($5,000).
