Practical Joke’s Mufasa The King In ‘WAYI’ Vosburgh

[Wandering Eyes]

Chilean import MUFASA (CHI) (h, 5, Practical Joke–Miscanti {Chi}, by Scat Daddy) punched his ticket to the Breeder's Cup with a victory in Saturday's GII Vosburgh Stakes at Aqueduct, a 'Win and You're In' for the GI Breeders' Cup Sprint division. Positioned just outside pacesetter Dean Delivers (Cajun Breeze) into the far turn, the Irad Ortiz, Jr.-guided mount responded well when set down at the quarter pole and opened up ahead of Scotland (Good Magic) to come home in style and take his first North American graded stake.
