Drawn side by side are a pair of Baffert stablemates led by $700,000 KEESEP grad VOLDEMORT (Good Magic) who counts MGISW and late leading sire Pioneerof the Nile (Empire Maker) as an extended family member. The Triple Crown-nominated colt comes in off an extended work tab including a last-out four furlong drill in :47 2/5 (11/87). He draws inside of Tiz Secure (Maximum Security), a Watson/Weitman homebred out of MGISW Tough Tiz's Sis who has already produced GSW/GISP Tiz Midnight, herself responsible for MGSW/GISP and $1.45m KEENOV broodmare Midnight Memories (Mastery). Another half-sister, Tension (Tapit), produced MGSW Rocket Can (Into Mischief) who factored in the 2023 Triple Crown trail. Richard Mandella debuts Prayer (Quality Road), a full-brother to SW/MGSP Gingham and El Camino Real Derby winner Blackadder. TJCIS PPS

High Note (Curlin), the $450,000 FTSAUG half-sister to MGISW Verrazano (More Than Ready), debuts from the outside gate for Chad Brown. First dam Enchanted Rock, who initially sold for $2,000,000 carrying a full-sibling to Verrazano at KEENOV in 2017, has also produced GII Risen Star Stakes winner El Padrino (Pulpit) and MSP La Madrina (Tapit). The family includes a champion older mare in Queena (Mr. Prospector) and plenty of graded blacktype led of GISW Somali Lemondade (Lemon Drop Kid), GISW Serra Lake (Seattle Slew) and MGSW/MGISP Hungry Island (More Than Ready). She's drawn outside second-time starter Mischief in Motion (Into Mischief) who missed as the favorite going 5 1/2 furlongs on the Tapeta at Gulfstream Jan. 8 but now stretches out for Michael Trombetta.
