Breaking from the rail, the 9-2 shot spotted the field a step and stayed inside as a group stacked up on the lead into the clubhouse turn. Sitting a length back in third through fractions of :23.67 and :50.15, the OBS April grad had to be tipped out for a clear path to come after late leader Valley of Kings (Classic Empire). Put to an extended drive down the stretch, he gradually wore that frontrunner down and got by in the final sixteenth to win by two lengths. A claim of foul was lodged by the riders of both the runner up and Proud Painter (Caravaggio) who finished far back in third for possible interference at the quarter pole but the stewards allowed the result to stand. Magical Sign is a half-sister to MGSP Moraz (Empire Maker) and from the extended family of GSW\/GISP sire Temple City (Dynaformer).
