NK Racing and LNJ Foxwoods's Sneaky Good (Into Mischief), a $450,000 Keeneland September yearling, made good on her 'TDN Rising Star, presented by Hagyard' debut performance at Keeneland Oct. 5 with a smart win in Saturday's Sandpiper S. at Tampa Bay Downs.

The 7-5 chalk, drawn widest of all in post nine, was seventh through a sharp opening quarter in :21.71. She began to roll heading into the far turn and came charging home to win going away by 2 3/4 lengths over longshot Blazing Brat (Beau Liam). Sneaky Good becomes the185th stakes winner for the all-conquering Into Mischief.

The stakes-winning Gale, a $430,000 purchase by Sneaky Good's breeder Andrew N. Warren at the 2021 Keeneland November sale, is also responsible for a Curlin colt of 2024 ($375,000 KEESEP yearling) and a City of Light filly of this year. She was bred back to Life Is Good.
