'TDN Rising Star' My Prankster (Into Mischief) looks to secure his first graded victory Saturday in Gulfstream's GIII Swale S. Crushing the field by 10 lengths in his Saratoga unveiling Aug. 21, the $600,000 FTKSEL purchase checked in fourth next out in the GI Champagne S. Oct. 2. A close second in a sloppy renewal of Keeneland's Bowman Mill S. four weeks later, the bay captured a six-panel optional claimer at this venue last time Dec. 10.
Brad Cox sends out In Dreams (Frosted) off a pair of dominant victories. Off the board in his career bow at Churchill in October, the dark bay was second next out when dangled for a $150,000 tag at Keeneland 26 days later. Running away to a 6 1/2-length score in the same condition, but going a furlong shorter next out at Churchill Nov. 24, the $85,000 KEESEP acquisition rolled home to another six-length victory next out in a muddy optional claimer at Oaklawn Dec. 17.
A debut winner at this oval May 29, Of a Revolution (Maclean's Music) followed suit with an optional claimer score going six furlongs next out at Gulfstream Nov. 13. The chestnut completed the exacta in the Limehouse S. going the same distance last out in Hallandale Jan. 1.
Also of interest here is Stonehedge homebred Dean Delivers (Cajun Breeze). Graduating by 7 1/4 lengths in his career bow at Gulfstream June 26, the chestnut missed by a neck next out in the Florida Sire Dr. Fager S. July 31 here and came up a neck short yet again in a local optional claimer Jan. 8.
