News — Sun, 13 Aug 2023 22:09:00 +0000

Let Them Watch kept her undefeated record intact while providing her freshman sire (by Into Mischief) with his first stakes winner Sunday. A 6 1/4-length maiden winner when unveiled against Florida-breds over the Gulfstream main track July 7, the bay earned favoritism again at 4-5 for her jump into stakes company. Keeping pressure up front on leader Avellino (Adios Charlie), Let Them Watch was content to sit second only momentarily and, once given her head, quickly picked up her pace to strike the front two furlongs from the money. With a safe lead built up pas the quarter pole, she cruised home under wraps to win easily as Kiss closed in from off the pace to fill the exacta.

“When I was working her, I thought she didn't need to be on the lead,” said winning jockey Hector Diaz. “But she has so much speed, that she gets it. She got a little tired late because we moved a little early. I think she's going to keep improving.”

Maximus Mischief is the second Spendthrift freshman sire to pick up his first stakes winner following Omaha Beach earlier in the day Sunday. A half-sister to another Florida-bred stakes winner in It's High Time (Gone Astray), Let Them Watch is out of a half to GI Vosburgh S. winner Black Seventeen (Is It True). Her dam foaled an Awesome Slew filly last year and was bred to Uncle Chuck again for 2024 afer not producing a foal this year. Click for the Equibase.com chart or VIDEO, sponsored by FanDuel TV.
