New stallion Provocateur (by Into Mischief) has his first foal, a filly out of the winning Cassidy's Reward (Warrior's Reward) who was born on Monday, Jan. 19 at McMahon of Saratoga Thoroughbreds, the farm said in a release on Thursday.
“We are really pleased with this first foal, very correct and attractive,” said John McMahon. “She is everything you could hope for.”
A multiple-stakes winner and Grade I placed competitor, Provocateur is a full-brother to GSW One Liner and SP Roderick. The McMahon stallion counts as a half-brother 'TDN Rising Star, presented by Hagyard', & GII Wood Memorial Stakes hero Rodriguez (Authentic).
According to the Jockey Club of America, Provocateur covered 44 mares during his inaugural season last year.
Cassidy's Reward is half-sister to multiple stakes winner and stakes producer Shine Upon (Congaree) and to GISP Keep the Peace (Touch Gold). Her extended female family includes MGSP Brigand (by Flatter).
