Flashy Debut Winner Getaway Car Tops Best Pal Field

All eyes will be on Getaway Car  as he attempts to pull off the heist against black-type company in the $150,000 Best Pal Stakes (G3) at Del Mar.

Bob Baffert unveiled the $700,000 son of Curlin   July 20 over the same oval, where he overwhelmed his rivals in a front-running 3 1/4-length score under jockey Juan Hernandez. The flashy juvenile, campaigned by a powerhouse partnership comprised of Determined Stables, Madaket Stables, SF Racing, Starlight Racing, Stonestreet Stables, Waves Edge Capital, Dianne Bashor, Catherine Donovan, Robert Masterson, and Tom Ryan, has since returned to the work tab, breezing a sharp five furlongs in :59 4/5 Aug. 4.

Rollins: Getaway Car Pulls the Robbery in Del Mar Debut

Hernandez retains the mount on Getaway Car in the six-furlong test for 2-year-olds, a race that could serve as a launching pad for the $300,000 Del Mar Futurity (G1) at the meet's end.

Mischief River , one of two 2-year-olds picked out by prominent Quarter Horse trainer James Glenn Jr. in Ocala, Fla., showed all the makings of a potential star in his June 29 debut score at Los Alamitos Race Course over the highly touted Baffert-trained Privman .

Cesar Ortega rides the Into Mischief   colt, who breaks just to the inside of Getaway Car in what promises to be a hot early pace.

Scratching from the Aug. 4 Adirondack Stakes (G3) and the Aug. 10 Sorrento Stakes (G3) against her own gender, Prairie Gold Juvenile Stakes winner White Sands  will take on males for the second time Sunday. The Into Mischief half sister to Jackie's Warrior   has captured her last two starts by a combined 23 1/4 lengths for trainer Wesley Ward.
