Pretty Mischievous, the 2023 Kentucky Oaks winner and Eclipse Award champion of her division, has been retired to join the broodmare band for Godolphin, the owner-breeder announced on Thursday evening. Godolphin shared a video on social media of Pretty Mischievous stepping off the van at her “new home at Gainsborough Farm,” its broodmare branch in Versailles, Ky.  “Next stop, motherhood!” Godolphin wrote. Pretty Mischievous, trained throughout her career by Brendan Walsh, retires with a racing record of 13-7-2-3 and earnings of $2,112,560           The filly won the first two starts of her career at Churchill Downs before finishing third in the Grade 2 Golden Rod Stakes. She then spent the winter at the Fair Grounds, where she won the Untapable in December and the Grade 2 Rachel Alexandra in February 2023 before finishing second in the Grade 2 Fair Grounds Oaks. :: Bet the races with a $200 First Deposit Match + FREE All Access PPs!

The result was a neck victory over the charging Gambling Girl. Pretty Mischievous followed up with a hard-fought head victory over Dorth Vader in the Grade 1 Acorn Stales going a one-turn mile at Belmont. Pretty Mischievous was credited with the victory in the Grade 1 Test Stakes at Saratoga as the first across the wire following the injury to the ill-fated Maple Leaf Mel. She then finished second by half a length in the Grade 1 Cotillion on a sloppy track. After shipping to California to train for the Breeders' Cup Distaff, Pretty Mischievous became colicky and was ultimately scratched from the race. She still earned top votes for Eclipse honors. Pretty Mischievous returned to the races this year but was winless in three outings, finishing third behind last year's champion older female Idiomatic in the Grade 1 La Troienne; third to Randomized and Idiomatic in the Grade 1 Ogden Phipps; and, finally, flattening out to fifth in the Grade 1 Clement L. Hirsch at Del Mar. Pretty Mischievous, by leading sire Into Mischief, is out of Grade 1 winner Pretty City Dancer, who Stroud Coleman Bloodstock purchased for $3.5 million on behalf of Godolphin at the 2018 Fasig-Tipton November breeding stock sale. Godolphin has not yet discussed breeding plans for Pretty Mischievous, whose eighth dam is influential broodmare La Troienne. :: Want to learn more about handicapping and wagering?
