Fasig-Tipton

Risky Mischief (Into Mischief) lost an opportunity when her would-be debut was one of the casualties of torrential rains that forced the cancellation of racing at Saratoga following race four July 25. But the $350,000 Fasig-Tipton New York-Bred Sale graduate made a booming impression in the rescheduled event Wednesday afternoon at the Spa, validating 3-4 favoritism with a thoroughly dominating victory, good for the 'TDN Rising Star' tag. Drawn pole position, the March foal only beat one out of the stalls, but quickly mustered for speed up the fence to...

Sponsored by Alex Nichols Agency 3rd-SAR, $78,000, (S), Msw, 2yo, f, 6f, post time: 2:12 p.m. ET Jeff Drown's RISKY MISCHIEF (Into Mischief), a $350,000 Fasig-Tipton New York-Bred Yearling purchase last August, who had been expected to debut on the Saratoga card which got rained out last Thursday, makes her first trip to the post here for trainer Jeremiah Englehart. She is a daughter of multiple stakes winner Risky Rachel (Limehouse) and her second dam is graded stakes winner Dancin Renee (Distinctive Pro). Her half-brother Yale (Scat Daddy) sold for...

When Dennis' Moment (Tiznow) romped to a 19 1/4-length maiden victory at Ellis Park Saturday, the performance drew obvious comparisons to another Albaugh Family Stables runner who graduated impressively at the Henderson oval three years ago. Not This Time (Giant's Causeway) carried the operation's blue and white silks to a 10-length maiden score in August of 2016. He went on to add an 8 3/4-length win in the GIII Iroquois S. and came up just a neck short of champion Classic Empire (Pioneerof the Nile) when second in the GI...

Dennis' Moment (Tiznow) went wire-to-wire in impressive fashion at Ellis Park Saturday afternoon to become a TDN Rising Star for trainer Dale Romans and the Albaugh Family Stables. The well-regarded Dennis' Moment was given ample support at 5-2 in his career debut going five furlongs at Churchill Downs June 23, but he clipped heels, unseating rider Robby Albarado and failing to finish the race. Coming into this off a pair of inspiring morning works, including a five-furlong bullet move in :59 flat at Churchill July 15, the $400,000 Fasig-Tipton Saratoga...

One week from tomorrow Fasig-Tipton kicks off the 2015 North American yearling market with the Kentucky July yearling sale, in which 40 years ago this year, Seattle Slew sold as a yearling for $17,500 to Karen and Mickey Taylor, and it's been producing good horses ever since. This year 332 yearlings are catalogued--a 25% increase on last year's 265--to be followed by around 100 horses of racing age, minus withdrawals, plus 'wild cards'. Fasig catalogued 258 yearlings in 2013, significantly down from the 338 catalogued in 2012. That year 189...
