Multiple Grade I winner Dr. Schivel (Violence–Lil Nugget, by Mining for Money) was represented by his first foal when Jocosity (Distorted Humor) produced a colt at Drion Thoroughbreds Monday. The foal was bred by Sarah Hinkle, Drion Thoroughbreds, and Alistair Roden.

“He has good bone, scope, and size,” Roden said of the colt. “We're definitely breeding a few more mares this year to Dr. Schivel.”

The colt is the second foal out of the 6-year-old Jocosity, who is a half-sister to stakes winner Pay for Peace (Silent Name {Jpn}).

Campaigned by Red Baron's Barn, Rancho Temescal, Reeves Thoroughbred Racing, and William A. Branch, and trained by Mark Glatt, Dr. Schivel won the 2020 GI Runhappy Del Mar Futurity and the 2021 GI Bing Crosby Stakes. He was second in the 2021 GI Breeders' Cup Sprint and third in the 2022 G1 Dubai Golden Shaheen and 2023 Bing Crosby. On the board in 12 of 15 starts, he won seven times and earned $1,347,100.
