Into Mischief's Satono Voyage Stays Unbeaten On Dirt at Tokyo

9th-Tokyo, ¥21,610,000 ($140,357), Allowance, 2yo, 1400m, 1:23.2, gd.
SATONO VOYAGE (JPN) (c, 2, Into Mischief–Jolie Olimpica {Brz} {Horse of the Year, Ch. 2yo Filly & G1SW-Brz, Ch. Turf Female & GSW-Can, MGSW & GISP-US, $460,507}, by Drosselmeyer), a debut second in a 1200-meter test at Hanshin June 14, set a juvenile course record when graduating by 10 lengths at Niigata in a slick 1:10.80 Aug. 9.

Favored at 70 cents on the dollar, Satono Voyage broke alertly and was content to let the other speed go on with it, settling ahead of midfield down the back. Patiently handled on the turn by Mirai Iwata, the bay split rivals once into the long Tokyo straight, confronted the long-time leader at the furlong grounds and powered clear to take it by five lengths.

The Apr. 3 foal is the first produce from his dam, Brazil's Horse of the Year and champion of her generation at two in 2019 and acquired by the late Rick Porter's Fox Hill Farm to her continue her career in this country with Richard Mandella. The chestnut earned her keep with three victories at the graded level in North American, including the GII Nassau Stakes at Woodbine that earned her a Sovereign Award as Canada's champion turf female of 2021. She was also runner-up to champion Rushing Fall (More Than Ready) in the COVID-delayed running of the GI Coolmore Jenny Wiley Stakes in 2020. Purchased by Shimokobe Farm for $675,000 at Fasig-Tipton November in 2021, Jolie Olimpica was put in foal to this leading sire and was exported to Japan.

Barren to Triple Crown winner Contrail (Jpn) for 2024, the mare foaled a colt by dual Horse of the Year Equinox (Jpn) on Feb. 12 of this year. Lifetime Record: 3-2-1-0, $133,368.
