Pierce Eyes Canadian Filly Classics with Smart Mission
By Joe Bianca

5th-GP, $40,000, Msw, 2-21, 3yo, f, 1mT, 1:35.31, fm.
+SMART MISSION, f, 3, by Smart Strike

SW-Can, $194,320), by Miswaki
2nd Dam: Hangin on a Star, by Vice Regent

One day after unveiling 3-year-old filly Smart Mission to a scintillating, trouble-filled debut win that earned her “TDN Rising Star” status, trainer Malcolm Pierce already had his sights set on an elusive personal goal with his well-bred chestnut: the Woodbine Oaks. Despite a successful training career including myriad marquee wins, Pierce has never captured the crown jewel for 3-year-old Canadian fillies. Smart Mission, though, has him thinking big.
