Good Magic's Mage Opens His Account On Pegasus Undercard

Mage | Lauren King

2nd-Gulfstream, $70,000, Msw, 1-28, 3yo, 7f, 1:22.54, ft, 3 3/4 lengths.

MAGE (c, 3, Good Magic–Puca {SW & GSP, $299,406}, by Big Brown), dismissed by the betting public at 11-1 in his debut start despite selling for $290,000 at last year's Fasig-Tipton Midlantic Sale, avoided trouble with a forward ride out of the gate, setting the early pace from just off the rail. Positioned inside of pressure from Perform (Good Magic) through the half-mile in :45.88, Mage hit his best stride past the quarter pole and drew off nicely down the lane, hitting the wire 3 3/4 lengths ahead of Bourbon Resolve (Hard Spun). A son of 'TDN Rising Star' and GSP Puca–herself a half-sister to GISW Finnegans Wake (Powerscourt {GB})–Mage is a half-brother to SP Gunning (Gun Runner). His 2-year-old full-sister brought $325,000 from Oracle Bloodstock at last year's Keeneland September Sale and Puca foaled a colt by McKinzie last year. Sales History: $235,000 Ylg '21 KEESEP; $290,000 2yo '22 EASMAY. Lifetime Record: 1-1-0-0, $42,000. Click for the Equibase.com chart or VIDEO, sponsored by TVG.
