Daylon Miracle is three-year-old half-sister to Daylon
Magician, a winner of more than one million dollars during his sophomore season
in 2011 which led to his being named Canada’s top performer in his division.
Mary and Dave Lemon, who own and operate Daylon Farm in
nearby Komoka, Ontario, bred and own both performers with Dave handling the
training duties. Unraced last year at
two, Daylon Miracle, who is by Pegasus Spur, has drawn post seven in the first
race on the Friday the 13th card.
Dave Wall, who will be inducted into the Canadian Horse
Racing Hall of Fame later this year, has been assigned to drive the filly in
her first lifetime start. He is somewhat familiar with her having guided her in
her qualifier last week at the London track which she won by more than three
lengths in 2:03.3.
Meanwhile big brother Daylon Magician continues to
prepare for his four-year-old season with a 10 length romp in a qualifying race
yesterday at Mohawk.
