DENIM AND PEARLS (f, 2, Into Mischief–Majestic Presence {GSP-USA, MSP-Can, $227,896}, by Majestic Warrior) came into this unveiling sporting a bullet five furlong move over the track Oct. 15 (1/25) in 1:00.40, and crowned the 8-5 choice by the betting public, jumped well to find herself in the midst of a hotly contested lead. Losing her advantage to a vying outer rival, she reclaimed command coming into the homestretch and briefly put open air between herself and the field. Shifting out as the challengers closed the gap, she met all rallies to the wire and got the best of a photo over Sweet Gal of Mine (Dialed In). The full-sister to 'TDN Rising Star' Newgate, GSW, $241,975 commanded a sizable price tag as a yearling–$500,000 at FTSAUG–and is the most recent to the races for her dam. She has a yearling half-sister Adeera (Authentic). Majestic Presence, herself an accomplished runner and a half-sister to GSW Victress (Include) as well as to the dam of GSW My Majestic Rose (Majestic Warrior), visited Life is Good for 2024. Sales history: $500,000 Ylg '22 FTSAUG. Lifetime Record: 1-1-0-0, $56,575. Click for the Equibase.com chart or VIDEO, sponsored by FanDuel TV.
