Supersire Into Mischief was represented by debut maiden winner PRATE at Fair Grounds on December 19. The handsome Juddmonte Farms colorbearer cruised to an easy victory under jockey Florent Geroux for trainer Brad Cox. He ran a faster Beyer speed figure than stakes horses on the same card, stopping the clock in 1:09.81 for six furlongs, thrusting himself into the 2021 Triple Crown discussion.
Trainer Todd Pletcher unveiled talented filly, ZAAJEL at Gulfstream Park on December 20. The Shadwell Farm homebred won by just over seven lengths upon debut, running seven furlongs in 1:23.81. A daughter of Street Sense from a Daaher mare showed the ability to rate and should improve as the distances increase. Luis Saez was aboard for the score.
