MG1SW Magical ((Ire) (Galileo {Ire}–Halfway to Heaven {Ire}), by Pivotal {GB}), runner-up behind Tarnawa (Ire) (Shamardal) in the Nov. 7 GI Breeders' Cup Mile at Keeneland, has remained in training and is expected to make her next start in the G1 Hong Kong Cup at Sha Tin Dec. 13.

Earlier this season, the 5-year-old mare won the G1 Irish Champion S., G1 Tattersalls Gold Cup and the G1 Pretty Polly S.

“She ran very well in America, we were very happy with her at the Breeders' Cup,” said trainer Aidan O'Brien. “At the moment the plan is to take her to Hong Kong. She's still in full work at the moment and that's what we are looking at the minute.”
