Mystic Love

KETTLE WON created quite a stir in his 2-year-old debut during the 1998 Saratoga meet as the Todd Pletcher-trainee blew away the opposition with a ten and a half-length romp in maiden special company. He has since competed successfully on dirt and turf, going short and long, and fiinished second in the Fort Lauderdale Handicap-G3 over Gulfstream Park's turf course in March of 2000. A half-brother to the durable allowance horse GLIDE HOME, KETTLE WON is out of championSAFELY KEPT's half-sister SAFE AT THE PLATE, a stakes-placed winner of $114,923.

MYSTIC LOVE had a sensational juvenile season in 2012, winning three of four starts and earning the title of Maryland-bred champion 2-year-old filly.

A second generation homebred for Dark Hollow Farm, the daughter of Not For Love got her first stakes win in one of racing’s most historic tests for 2-year-old fillies, the 83rd running of the Selima S. at Laurel Park. Breaking next to last in the field of 12, she gradually settled into stride then accelerated around the far turn and swept past her rivals to get up in time in the race worth $150,000, finishing 5½ furlongs over the firm turf in 1:02.23.

A trip to Gulfstream Park was next on the agenda, and MYSTIC LOVE handled it with aplomb, facing the boys and dashing home to win the one-mile $100,000 Dania Beach S. on the turf by a half length over Charming Kitten. She concluded her season with earnings of $174,760.
