WHISKEY DOUBLE (c, 2, Into Mischief–Lake Sebago {MSW, $243,225}, by Munnings), an $875,000 KEESEP buy, was sent off the 7-5 choice in this unveiling and settled in a stalking position as Medicine Tail (Kantharos) led through initial fractions of :21.81 and :45.78. Three wide turning for home, the Steve Asmussen trainee took aim in upper stretch and wore down the 7-2 shot late to score by 3/4 of a length. Windcracker (Super Saver) was third. The bay's dam is MSW Lake Sebago (Munnings) and hails from the family of Canadian champion Hollinger (Black Minnaloushe). She produced a filly by Ghostzapper last season followed by a full-sister to Whiskey Double earlier this spring. Sales history: $875,000 Ylg '19 KEESEP. Lifetime Record: 1-1-0-0, $45,064.
