MISCHIEF RIVER (c, 2, Into Mischief–Candy Drawer, by Candy Ride {Arg}) was overlooked as a 7-1 shot for his debut here in favor of fellow 'TDN Insight' runner Privman (Justify) who was tabbed as the even-money favorite. Co-owned by Chris Galpin and trained by James Glenn–both from the Quarter Horse world–the juvenile grabbed the early lead from the bell, but relinquished the top spot up the backstretch to General Jackson (Maximus Mischief). Chasing the pace around the far turn, the colt took the lead at the top of the lane and could not be caught by the chalk who finished a length and a half behind Mischief River at the wire. The winner is a full-brother to Into Chocolate, GSW, $220,531 and to a colt who was foaled last year. Candy Drawer is a half-sister to GISW Harmonious (Dynaformer). Sales History: $160,000 Ylg '23 KEESEP; $500,000 2yo '24 OBSAPR. Lifetime Record: 1-1-0-0, $24,600. Click for the Equibase.com chart or VIDEO, sponsored by FanDuel TV.
