Mia Mischief (3-2f) wins G2 Eight Belles

Always on the pace under Ricardo Santana Jr., MIA MISCHIEF put away AMY'S CHALLENGE before edging clear Friday in the first stakes on the Kentucky Oaks card, the Grade 2, $200,000 Eight Belles.

Mia Mischief, an Into Mischief filly owned by a three-way partnership, returned $5 as favorite in a field of seven 3-year-old fillies. She finished about two lengths before TALK VEUVE TO ME, with GAS STATION SUSHI, the 5-2 second choice, another couple of lengths back in third.

Mia Mischief, trained by Steve Asmussen, finished seven furlongs in 1:21.84 over a fast track.

The $2 exacta (3-5) paid $21.80, the $1 trifecta (3-5-6) returned $34.40, and the $1 superfecta (3-5-6-4) was worth $158.60.

David Grening will have the full Eight Belles recap up before long on www.drf.com
