NUIT MAGIQUE (f, 4, Arrogate–Twixy, by Mutakddim), who drew off for an eight-length win in her Feb. 8 debut, remained undefeated under Nik Juarez.
The 3-5 favorite in a field of 10 was angled in early and chased Lassie My Girl (Double Irish) as that one set fractions of :22.38 and :46.19. Showing determination while racing along the rail, she rallied to the inside of both Little Blaze (Will Take Charge) and Don't Ju Forget (Misremembered) to record a half-length tally.
She is a half-sister to Twixy Roll (Roll Hennessy Roll), MSW, $277,172 and hails from the female family that yielded millionaire Caleb's Posse, winner of the 2011 Breeders' Cup Dirt Mile. Her winning dam has a 2-year-old Marking colt named Fort Sumner and she was bred back to Marking for this term. Sales History: $255,000 Ylg '22 KEESEP; $1,000,000 2yo '23 EASMAY.
