Notable US-Bred and -Sired Runners in Japan: June 4-5, 2022

In this continuing series, we take a look ahead at US-bred and/or conceived runners entered for the upcoming weekend at the tracks on the Japan Racing Association circuit, with a focus on pedigree and/or performance in the sales ring. Here are the horses of interest for this weekend running at Chukyo Racecourse. The penultimate Group 1 event of the spring racing calendar is set for Sunday at Tokyo, which hosts the G1 Yasuda Kinen. Two-time G1 February S. hero Cafe Pharoah (American Pharoah) tries the grass for just the second time in his career, while the bonny mare Lotus Land (Point of Entry) tries to improve on her cracking runner-up effort when last seen in the G1 Takamatsunomiya Kinen in late March. Elsewhere in Japan over the weekend are the first foals to race by the expatriated Beach Patrol and Mind Your Biscuits, among other Japanese stallions:

Pricey Into Mischief Filly Scores at Woodbine

2nd-Woodbine, C$92,730, Msw, 5-14, 2yo, f, 4 1/2f (AWT), :52.41, ft, 4 3/4 lengths.

ADORA (f, 2, Into Mischief–Southern Ring {MGSW-Can, SP-USA, $343,998}, by Speightstown) was heavily favored in this debut and ran to the money with a decisive graduation. Dueling on the front end early, the $450,000 FTSAUG buy sauntered clear with ease in the lane to win by 4 3/4 lengths in :52.41. Delilah's Revenge (Good Magic) closed greenly late to get the better of a photo for second at 44-1 for her freshman sire (by Curlin).

The victress is her young dam's second foal with a 3-year-old unraced older sister named Ladywearsthering (Uncle Mo) the only other of racing age. She has a yearling full-brother on record and their dam is expecting a foal by Authentic this season. Adora hails from a productive female family being out of MGSW Southern Ring (Speightstown), herself a daughter of a stakes-winning full-sister to Canadian Champion 3-year-old filly Catch The Ring (Seeking the Gold). The aforementioned filly produced another Canadian champion with her daughter Catch the Thrill (A. P. Indy) securing juvenile honors and who went on to produce a pair of stakes fillies.

This is the family of Messier (Empire Maker), Forest Uproar (Forest Wildcat) and no less than 25 black-type earners. Sales history: $450,000 Ylg '21 FTSAUG. Lifetime Record: 1-1-0-0, $47,886. Click for the Equibase.com chart or VIDEO, sponsored by TVG.

Sponsored by Alex Nichols Agency

2nd-WO, $126K, MSW, 2yo, f, 4 1/2f, 1:43 p.m.

Trainer Mark Casse debuts 2-year-old ADORA at Woodbine on Saturday for owner Tracy Farmer. The daughter of leading sire Into Mischief was purchased for $450,000 from prolific Canadian breeder Sam-Son Farm at the 2021 Fasig-Tipton Saratoga Sale. Dam and Sam-Son home-bred Southern Ring, out of a half-sister to Canadian Ch. 3-year-old filly Catch the Ring (Seeking the Gold), took both the GIII Ontario Fashion S. and the GIII Whimsical S. and was herself sold for $875,000 to Determined Stud at the 2021 Keeneland January Horses of all Ages Sale carrying a full-sibling to Adora. The bay has had several works from the gate at Woodbine recently including a bullet Apr. 23, going three furlongs in :35 (1/34) and again Apr. 30 where she worked in :34 3/5 (2/29). Adora picks up jockey Patrick Husbands, who has also been aboard for her works, for her career debut.  TJCIS PPs

Into Mischief Colt Closes Out Derby Card With Rising Star-Worthy Performance

The Brad Cox barn was perhaps a bit quieter than usual for most of Saturday's GI Kentucky Derby card, but it unveiled one in the finale who could very well play a role in major races later this season with a 'TDN Rising Star'-worthy unveiling.

Backed down to 8-5 favoritism off of sharp-looking works, Godolphin homebred Strobe (Into Mischief) zoomed out of the gate from his high draw and quickly cleared. He zipped along through strong splits of :21.73 and :45.34, and never looked back to run up the score to about five lengths in a snappy 1:08.71. Frequent runner-up Bourbon Heist (Practical Joke) completed his sixth career exacta.

Strobe is the fourth winner from five to race out of his dam Flashing (A.P. Indy), victorious in the GI Test S. and GI Gazelle S. and third in the GI Mother Goose S. in 2009 while officially trained by Saeed bin Suroor. Flashing is a daughter of Morning Pride, winner of the 1999 G3 Prix du Bois as a juvenile for trainer Andre Fabre, while the deeper female family includes Canadian champion Key to the Moon, GI Kentucky Oaks winner Seaside Attraction and GISW Gorgeous.

Strobe, a half-brother to Floodlight (Medaglia d'Oro), SW & MGSP-Fr, $111,885, is the 31st 'Rising Star' for his all-conquering sire and, after not producing a foal in 2020 or 2021, was most recently covered by Street Boss.

14th-Churchill Downs, $121,904, Msw, 5-7, 3yo/up, 6f, 1:08.71, ft, 4 1/2 lengths.
