Journalists Wandering Eyes Posted June 22, 2020 Journalists Share Posted June 22, 2020 Hall of Famer Bob Baffert sent out ‘TDN Rising Star’ Gamine to a jaw-dropping victory in Belmont’s GI Acorn S. Saturday, and unleashed another talented 3-year-old daughter of Into Mischief Sunday evening in the form of PROVOCATION (f, Into Mischief–Meadow Breeze, by Meadowlake). The $350,000 OBS April pick-up (:20.3) was bet early and often as if the race had already been run off of a strong series of local works (see May 29, 6f, 1:12 3/5, 1/8 via XBTV). Away at 3-5, the bay zipped away to take command while a bit off the rail through splits of :23.05 and :45.99. Second time starting stablemate and $1-million weanling Himiko (American Pharoah) gave game chase into the lane, but Provocation was still in cruise control as she reported home some two lengths to the good in 1:16.93. Out of the Grade I-winning juvenile Meadow Breeze, Provocation is a half to ‘TDN Rising Star’ Magic Star (Scat Daddy), GSW, $180,670; and Royal Copy (Bodemeister), GISP, $138,725. Meadow Breeze was acquired for $150,000 at the 2013 Keeneland November sale while carrying Royal Copy–the same year her half-brother Overanalyze (Dixie Union) annexed the GI Arkansas Derby. Meadow Breeze’s now 2-year-old colt by Runhappy was a $475,000 KEESEP yearling. She produced an Uncle Mo filly Feb. 17. Sales history: $160,000 yrl ’18 KEESEP; $350,000 2yo ’19 OBSAPR. Lifetime Record: 1-1-0-0 O-Speedway Stable LLC. B-Betz/DJ Stables/CoCo/Burns/Magers (Ky). T-Bob Baffert.
