Into Mischief - 2008 Kentucky Derby Contender.

Trainer: Richard Mandella
Jockey: Victor Espinoza
Owner: B. Wayne Hughes
Breeder: James T. Hines Jr.
2007 Record: 2-1-0 in 3 starts

Into Mischief's sire and dam were completely different types of racehorses, and that complementary union may offer him the best of both worlds. Into Mischief is from the first crop of multiple Grade 1 hero Harlan's Holiday, a grandson of the mighty Storm Cat who has gotten off to a terrific start at stud with his 2007 juveniles. An earner of more than $3.6 million in the course of his career, Harlan's Holiday was a major player on the 2002 Kentucky Derby trail. After capturing the Florida Derby (gr. I) and Blue Grass Stakes.

CashCall Futurity (gr. I) winner Into Mischief, runner-up in the San Vicente Stakes (gr. II) last out while suffering from foot issues, will miss more training after undergoing treatment. "We opened up some abscesses in his hind feet and he's probably going to be out of training about two weeks, so he's out of any long-term (Kentucky) Derby (gr. I) plans," trainer Richard Mandella announced. "We don't have anything planned right now; just to get him healed up."
