March 1 - Good Magic

He is by two-time Horse of the Year Curlin who has gone on to be a super star stallion. He was a good racehorse in his own right, but hey, he produced last year's Kentucky Derby winner in Mage and Curlin hasn't done that yet.

Good Magic ranked second in the derby to Justify. If you ever see the two, they look like twins except for Justify being bigger. I will say this, my good friend Anne Peters, who I will say is the absolute best pedigree expert I've met in 50 years told me that she thought Good Magic would be the better stallion when both Justify and Good Magic went to stud. Did I mention that Good Magic has already produced a Kentucky Derby winner? Not to say that Justify isn't knocking it out of the park as well, but if the Derby is how we measure greatness, then Mage by Good Magic confirms Anne as the Pedigree Goddess.
