Well-bred MISCHIEVOUS TIME (Not This Time) makes his first start for trainer Steve Asmussen. The Whisper Hill homebred is from unraced dam Daisy Mason (Orientate), who Mandy Pope and Gainesway acquired for $475,000 during the Keeneland November Sale while Mischievous Time was in-utero. This dam is herself out of Broodmare of the Year Leslie's Lady (Tricky Creek) who prolifically produced all-conquering sire Into Mischief (Harlan's Holiday), current sire Mendelssohn (Scat Daddy) and the multiple Eclipse winning Beholder (Henny Hughes).
Also set for his unveiling is Vermelho (Constitution), who was bred by Bobby Flay and taken home for $450,000 at Keeneland September by Belladona Racing. Sent to Cherie DeVaux, the colt is a half-brother to MGSW Lone Rock (Majestic Warrior) and GSW Gerrymander (Into Mischief), while his extended female family includes Hard Not to Like (Hard Spun).
Trained by Bill Mott, Juddmonte homebred Atlal (Quality Road) is the first registered foal for his unraced dam Atheer (Maibu Moon). She is part of the line from champion older mare Close Hatches (First Defence). TJCIS PPS
