He did not do too well in the slop at Louisville, so today may be a bummer for him again.
Slop at the K.Derby wasn’t the problem. He had a bad start, then was stymied several times as he tried to make his late move. He won a maiden race in the slop by 11 lengths.
Check out the Past Performances link I posted above.
“Lone Sailor is the only other runner with a triple-digit figure from the last three outings, receiving a 100 for a close second in the Louisiana Derby.
The Tom Amoss-trained late runner brought improving form into the Kentucky Derby but was repeatedly stopped and forced to regain his momentum recording a severely-troubled eighth. Irad Ortiz Jr. will pick up the mount for the Preakness.
Good Magic has not run back to the 105 he earned posting an upset win in the Breeders’ Cup Juvenile at Del Mar.
The Kentucky Derby runner-up will be the clear second choice in the wagering, but Good Magic’s Speed ratings are far from overwhelming.”
