MO MISCHIEF (Into Mischief), purchased by Myracehorse.com and Spendthrift Farm for $500,000 after breezing a quarter in :21 at OBS March, makes his debut for Todd Pletcher. The 9-5 morning-line favorite is out of the multiple stakes-placed Montbrook mare Montessa G.

“He's a horse that we really liked when we bought him,” said Spendthrift Farms' General Manager Ned Toffey. “Saratoga is the best of the bests, it's where people love to unveil their 2-year-olds and you better have your big boy pants on when you go to the starting gate at Saratoga.”

Fellow firster Momos (Distorted Humor), a $180,000 OBS March graduate (:21), was produced by a half-sister to GISWs Daddys Lil Darling (Scat Daddy) and Mongolian Saturday (Any Given Saturday). He is trained by Christophe Clement.

Repo Rocks (Tapiture), just a $70,000 KEESEP yearling, displays a flashy worktab for Hall of Famer Bill Mott for this debut run.
