Theoryintopractice newest stakes winner for Into Mischief

Not long after Covfefe gave Into Mischief his latest Grade 1 winner on Saturday afternoon, Theoryintopractice got his first stakes win in the Louisiana Downs Cup Turf Classic, enhancing what has been a brilliant week for the Spendthrift stallion (VIDEO).

Stakes-placed on a pair of occasions previously, Theoryintopractice got a ground-saving trip in Saturday’s 1 1/16-mile contest. Parked behind horses on the rail for the first six furlongs, he took the two path on the final bend, then split horses in the stretch and bested In the Navy by a neck for the win.

Theoryintopractice has banked $273,415 and finished in the top three in more than half his 35 outings. He is owned by Courtney Barousse and was bred by Cypress Bend Farm.
