R MAGIC MOMENT
Owner David Nemeka of Springville,
Utah, says R MAGIC MOMENT was bred , raised and trained to follow
in the footsteps of her champion mother, Nellies Girl, and that
she did so with a lot of authority.
The
1990 blue roan filly won the Star Of Stars Futurity, was named
champion 2-year-old distance filly and received a bronze medallion
for 2-year-old filly.
She
continued her racing career by receiving the 3-year-old filly
bronze medallion, was named a California champion, and received
the honor of supreme champion 3-year-old-and-older Appaloosa.
She
started out her 4-year-old campaign by setting a track record
at Stockton, which still stands. She also ran 2nd to the legendary
Wing It in the Coast To Coast and had back-to-back wins in
the Classy Lassie. She capped off her 4-year-old year with
the bronze medallion for 4-year-old mares – giving her a bronze
racing medallion for three consecutive years.
According
to ApHC records she is also the only mare in the history of
the Appaloosa Horse Club to have a graded stakes race named
after her, the R MAGIC MOMENT Stakes. R MAGIC MOMENT won 11
of 20 races with lifetime earnings of $110,795.62.
