Of the 94 first-crop yearlings by Good Magic reported as sold in 2021 (110 ring), no horse cost more than REINCARNATE, who gets his career going at what has been a soggy Del Mar over the weekend. The Apr. 1 foal, a $775,000 purchase out of last year's Keeneland September sale, is out of the stakes-winning Allanah (Scat Daddy), who was acquired by Peter O'Callaghan's Woods Edge Farm for $105,000 in foal to Street Boss at the 2018 Keeneland November Sale. Trained by Bob Baffert for SF Racing, Starlight Racing and Madaket Stable, the gray colt must overcome a high draw in a race that could be washed onto the main track. American Empire (American Pharoah) is a son of Team Block's 2012 GIII Pucker Up S. victress Leading Astray (Belong to Me), a half-sister to the Illinois-based operation's GIII Kentucky Turf Cup hero Suntracer (Kitten's Joy), MGSW turf marathoner Free Fighter (Out of Place) and a full-sister to SW/MGSP Corrupt (Belong to Me).

ZED (Arrogate) is the first foal out of Shane's Girlfriend (Adios Charlie), who made an enormous splash as a juvenile for trainer Doug O'Neill with a dominating 13 1/4-length victory in the GIII Delta Downs Princess S. The dark bay races in partnership for WC Racing, who was also part-owner of Shane's Girlfriend. The dark bay prepped for this with a bullet half-mile in :47 3/5 over the Keeneland main track Sept. 3. Permafrost (Frosted) is a half-brother to three-time graded winner Divine Oath (Broken Vow) and GSW Auntie Joy (Uncle Mo) and counts the irrepressible Personal Ensign (Private Account) as his third dam.
