In what Sean Casey hopes will be a sign of things to come, Magic To Exceed made the perfect start to his career by winning the Regent Theatre Plate (1200m) in impressive style.
Tuned up with two good trial wins and partnered by Jordan Turner, Magic To Exceed raced on pace and fought on strongly in the straight to defeat Wise Words by a neck.
