Two-time Eclipse Award champion Monomoy Girl has delivered her first foal, a colt by four-time reigning leading sire Into Mischief. Spendthrift Farm announced the arrival Saturday. Spendthrift raced and stands Into Mischief, and campaigned Monomoy Girl in partnership through the final races of her career after purchasing her for $9.5 million at the 2020 Fasig-Tipton November sale. Monomoy Girl won 14 of her 17 career starts, never finished worse than second, and earned more than $4.7 million. She earned her first divisional Eclipse Award in 2018, with season-defining victories in the Kentucky Oaks and Breeders’ Cup Distaff. Following a layoff of more than a year, she returned to claim an Eclipse title as an older mare, winning all three starts in 2020, including another edition of the Distaff. Monomoy Girl is one of two multi-time Eclipse Award champions in the Spendthrift Farm broodmare band, which also is home to Beholder, who won three Breeders’ Cup races while earning four Eclipse trophies. Beholder, who was inducted into the Hall of Fame last year in her first year of eligibility, was recently represented by her first winner in Teena Ella, her third foal to the races. The War Front filly moved to turf at Santa Anita to win her maiden in her 3-year-old debut. :: Bet the races on DRF Bets!

She was barren when bred to Gun Runner for this year. Spendthrift has not yet announced who either Beholder or Monomoy Girl will be bred to in 2023. In an interesting connection, Beholder is by Henny Hughes, while Monomoy Girl is out of a Henny Hughes mare, Drumette. Beholder also shares another pedigree connection to Monomoy Girl’s firstborn. Beholder is a half-sister to Into Mischief. Mutasaabeq to Florida In a relatively rare instance of a stallion moving between major-market farms after the breeding season has begun, first-year stallion Mutasaabeq has arrived at Pleasant Acres Stallions in Morriston, Fla. The son of Into Mischief was retired last September to Darby Dan Farm in Lexington, Ky. The majority of breeding sheds opened on or about Feb. 10. No information was immediately provided on the reasoning behind the move. “Mutassabeq is a perfect fit for Florida and for Florida breeders,” Pleasant Acres director of stallion services Christine Jones said in a press release. “Not only does he have an impressive pedigree on his sire and dam lines, he was also a talented racehorse with a tremendous turn of foot.” Mutasaabeq was purchased as a weanling by Shadwell and raced for that operation, which has recently moved away from standing stallions in Kentucky, although it maintains a strong U.S. broodmare band. Mutasaabeq was a versatile runner for Shadwell, finishing third in the Grade 1 Hopeful on dirt and winning the Grade 2 Bourbon on turf as a juvenile. He went on to win the Mucho Macho Man on dirt as a 3-year-old. Classic Empire double Eclipse Award champion juvenile Classic Empire has designs on this year’s classic series after a solid weekend. The stallion recorded a graded stakes double Saturday, with Angel of Empire winning the Grade 2 Risen Star at Fair Grounds and Classy Edition winning the Grade 3 Royal Delta at Gulfstream. :: DRF BREEDING LIVE: Real-time coverage of breeding and sales The Risen Star was the first Kentucky Derby points race offering 50 points to the winner. Classic Empire, second in the 2017 Preakness, is a grandson of Kentucky Derby winner and classic influence Unbridled, via his son Pioneerof the Nile, also the sire of Triple Crown winner American Pharoah. From his first two crops of racing age, Classic Empire, who stands at Coolmore’s Ashford Stud in Kentucky, is the sire of 10 stakes winners. He is now the sire of four graded winners, with Angel of Empire and Classy Edition joining Grade 2 winner Interstatedaydream and Grade 3 winner Morello. My Golden Song quadruple The late Texas sire My Golden Song was represented by four statebred stakes winners on Saturday at Sam Houston. Sunlit Song won the Houston Turf, Imaluckycharm won the Miss Bluebonnet Turf, Gold Pilot won the H-Town Stakes, and Izatiz won Two Altazano Stakes. My Golden Song, by Unbridled’s Song, died at age 19 last August at his longtime home, Valor Farm. Texas’ leading freshman sire of 2011, he was perennially among the state’s top five stallions over the last decade. :: Want to learn more about handicapping and wagering?
