Deep Magic, 3yo colt bred and raced by Otsego Farms, has been sold to FDL Lodge.
His breeding created high expectations; which have not been met up to this point in his career. Sired by War Machine out of the superb mare Isca's Revenge from Smokey's stable, the connections at Otsego Farms thought they had a match made in heaven. "They (War Machine and Isca's Revenge) were both speedy, classic distance horses who loved dirt. We felt this pairing had absolutely everything going for it", Otsego owner Jim Webber stated.
However, Deep Magic has been slow to show off his talent. Six races into his career, he sports a record of 6-0-2-1 with earnings of $72,500.
With stall space a concern, Webber felt compelled to move Deep Magic in spite of the fact that 3yo filly Moondragon was sold to Formosa Farms just a few days ago. "This gives us a little breathing room, stall-wise", Webber continued.
"Finlay has the golden touch. Perhaps he and his people can get a little more out of Deep Magic. We wish him the best", Webber said as he held up a glass of Dom Perignon. "Cheers!"
