Frank Fletcher went to $1.85-million to secure an Into Mischief colt (hip 416) from the consignment of S B M Training and Sales.
“He's by one of the leading sires in our generation,” said Donato Lanni, who signed the ticket on Fletcher's behalf. “Fast horse. Bill Mott is going to get him and Bill really liked him. And so we got a pretty good endorsement. And Frank loves to run at Oaklawn and [he] looks like a dirt horse.”
Out of the graded stakes-placed Will Take Charge mare Sweet Diane, the colt worked his furlong in :9 4/5.
Bred in Kentucky by River Bend Farm, he is a half-brother to stakes winner Miss Martini (Curlin).
Tami Bobo purchased him for just $75,000 as a yearling at Keeneland September last season.
