Mystic Guide

Mystic Guide ran third in his career debut Feb. 15, 2020, at Fair Grounds and followed with a runaway five-length romp at the New Orleans track when stretching out from a sprint to 1 1/16 miles. The Ghostzapper colt finished second in a June allowance/optional claiming race at Belmont Park before closing for third in his stales debut in the Grade 3 Peter Pan Stakes July 16 at Saratoga.

Mike Stidham kept Mystic Guide at the graded stakes level for his next start and he rewarded his faith with an off-the-pace victory by three-quarters of a length in the Grade 2 Jim Dandy Stakes at 1 1/8 miles Sept. 5 at Saratoga.

In his 4-year-old debut, Mystic Guide won the Grade 3 Razorback Handicap at Oaklawn Park on Feb. 27, 2021, setting him up for a trip to the Middle East for the $12 million Dubai World Cup. On March 27 at Meydan, Mystic Guide stalked the early pace under Luis Saez and took command in the stretch on his way to a career-defining, 3 3/4-length victory in the Dubai World Cup. 

Five-time Grade 1 winner Music Note, by A.P. Indy, is the dam (mother) of Mystic Guide.
