Emphatic winner of the Kentucky Derby (G1), joining Apollo (1882) and Justify (2018) as the only horses in the history of the historic race to win without the benefit of having started as a two-year-old. Winning in his 4th career start also matched Justify’s record feat. His 105 Beyer in the Derby stands as the highest speed figure of the last 15 years. He retires as the leading 3-year-old in America by North American earnings and a resume that includes wins or placing in the Grade 1 Kentucky Derby, Grade 1 Haskell Invitational, Grade 1 Florida Derby and Grade 1 Preakness Stakes.
By leading young sire GOOD MAGIC, Champion 2YO of 2017, and out of Broodmare of the Year candidate, Puca, a graded filly on the track whose first 3 foals have all been stakes horses including major 2024 Kentucky Derby prospect, Dornoch, Mage is a beautifully balanced and correct individual who exudes class.
Dornoch, a full brother to Mage, won the GII Remsen Stakes on 12/2/23 to pick up 10 Kentucky Derby qualifying points.
