"This theory has also been repeatedly (exhaustively) demonstrated to be useful in predicting the discovery of new data not available at the time of the prediction. That is one of the principal purposes of all sciences - prediction of results based on extant data. Success or failure in these predictions is one of the principal proofs of utility of a theory.

Can you provide some references to satisfy my curiosity?

I have better things to do than run google searches for others.

Here ya go. The above link has links to other specific references. Also, you can do a search on talkorigins or browse the index and find more material on evolution and its predictive ability than you can read in days.

Origin of Species itself predicted the whole science of genetics, btw.
