THE 2015 MKB BOOK of Prospects

As awarded by Annie and the Magic Genie

MKB Biographies by Annie

MKB : a Brief History.

I wanted to note how the MKB started .

Back in summer of 2008 , it was noticed by our ANNIE that there is a lull in horse racing interest between the Breeders Cup races and the Kentucky Derby .

What better way to continue sharing our horse racing passion, interaction and dialog with our Formblog friends by offering an activity to bridge that gap.

How about a ‘Kentucky Derby prospect’ to follow along the preps and races leading up to the Kentucky Derby in May ?

GENIUS! That concept became what is now the MKB. It can only be found here at Dan Illman’s Formblog. The first year was for the and now seven years later it is still as popular and going strong.

Each year we have new people visiting and participating at Dan’s Formblog.

Here is a Nov 2014 post and explanation from Annie :

I suppose I should explain the MKB for the newcomers. Like every year, someone is sure to ask "What is the MKB?" :)

MKB stands for Magic Kleenex Box. It's named for the box in which the names of promising two-year-olds will be placed next month. On December 14th, one of these horses will be drawn for each Formblogger who signs up for the MKB. That horse will become that person's own special horse to follow along the Derby Trail.

This will be the 7th Annual MKB and in 5 of the last 6 years, the winner of the Kentucky Derby has been drawn from that box either during the December draw or later in the March draw which assures that late-blooming three-year-olds can be included. Those eligible for the March draw will be Formbloggers whose original horse was not nominated to the Triple Crown or was injured or withdrawn from the Derby Trail.

Enjoy the fun of watching your very own horse compete against the horses of your fellow Formbloggers along the Derby Trail. SR Vegas will assist me in making sure that you know when and where your horse will be running so you can experience the anticipation and excitement of "owning" a Derby prospect.

If you have ever wanted to own a racehorse that could compete at the highest level, here's your chance to experience what it would be like, just by signing up for the MKB starting tomorrow! Of course, with so many horses vying for the top prizes, not all will achieve the very top level, but owners who spend thousands, even millions, have the same risk.

Maybe you will be one of the lucky ones. Annie

Thank YOU Annie!

TWAS THE NIGHT BEFORE MKB

Twas’ the night before MKB, with anticipation of course. Not a creature was stirring, not even a horse. The halters were hung on the stall pegs with care, In hopes that the owners soon would be there.

The horses were nestled all snug in their beds, While visions of roses danced in their heads. And I in my nightie, settled down for the night, Anxiously awaiting the dawn of first light.

And then in the corner the ancient lamp glowed, And out of the opening, the great Genie flowed. Her hair shone like gold, her eyes emerald green, She was the immortal MKB Queen.

She touched the Kleenex box on the nightstand, And it glowed with bright light from the touch of her hand. She summoned them all, and called them by name, Urging them on to fortune and fame.

"Now ! Now Mawthooq! Now Daredevil and ! On Upstart! On Aldrin! On Eagle and Blofeld!" Many more names she called with a howl, "Now dash away! Dash away! Dash away all!"

She summoned them all to feel the desire, The ancient legacy of speed and fire, Infused in the blood of their royal breed, She brought it to fore in each noble steed.

"It's your chance of a lifetime, In a lifetime of chance, Run for the roses, Your life to enhance.

May you all come home safely, Happy and sound. And the pleasures of life, May they truly abound."

With that the Genie, Full of good cheer, Flowed back in the lamp To await the next year.

In spite of not yet having run in a stakes race, he is only 15-1 on Wynn's Futures. And he also was the lowest price of the 23 single horses in Pool 1 of the Derby Futures at 9-1.

Perhaps the early betting is because of his impressive allowance win where he won by 7-3/4 lengths and earned a Beyer of 95. Looks like he will get the chance to prove he is as good as they think he is this Sat. in the Los Alamitos Futurity.

Race Record: 11/2 SA Broke maiden in a MDSP at 6-1/2F by 4-3/4 lengths 11/29 CD Won Alw/OptCL75K at 1 mile by 7-3/4 Lengths 12/20 LRC Won GR1 LosAl Futurity at 1 1/16 by a nose over /Mr Z

Your horse is COMPETITIVE EDGE.

He is a bay colt by Super Saver out of Magdalena's Chase by Cape Town. He was born 3/1/12. Your trainer is Todd Pletcher.

He sold for 750K at the FTFMar14 2-year-old sale. At one time he was only 30-1 on Wynn's Future, they have taken him off the list because he had an unfortunate setback (hairline fracture) after his September race. He showed much talent in his two starts, and hopefully with some time off he can return and take up where he left off.

He has raced 2 times and won them both, earning $259,800, with a 90 Beyer in each. Race record: 7/25 SAR Broke maiden in first start in MDSP at 6F by 10-1/4 lengths 9/1 SAR Won GR1 Hopeful at 7F by 5-3/4 lengths

Pretty sure that last one was not a true test of his talent. I imagine Castellano didn't push him when he had lost all chance. Deserves another chance.

Well, he obviously is meant to route, and he made the transition from turf to dirt, so things are looking promising.

YFL posted: My MKB.....Imperia. This could be a serious racehorse. After placing 2nd at the Spa in a msw, had the maiden breaker in the grade 3 Pilgram at Bel. Came home in 27.4 ( no calculator needed ) with the last 1/16th in 5.64. Was 10 lengths faster than the Miss Grillo two races before.

Then on to the BC juvie turf. 10th place not so good looking...... but, hugged the rail, was picking them up midway into the turn, then was denied room to run, repeatedly thru the lane.

Then at the place the Kentucky Derby is held...... ran 2nd by a head in the Gr. 2 Kentucky Jockey Club, once again closing well thru the lane.

It appears any surface is good for this one. Now...if he can just stay healthy and happy, the sky is the limit! And as CVS said once or probably more.....” When you got Slew, You got horse”

Thanks Genie for my MKB horse. YFL

Well, his mom was a major racehorse, earning over a million dollars in her career, and he has a major stallion for his daddy, so hopefully he will show what he's made of in 2015.

COMMENTS AND NOTES from Formbloggers:

I wanted to mention that there are several things I have noticed that are different this year than in previous years of the MKB.

1. You will notice many more horses trained by Mark Casse. His owners have been spending big bucks at the sales and he is running the horses here in the U.S. rather than Canada, on many occasions. He looks determined to win some Derby preps and get them in the Derby gate.

2. For some reason there are many more chestnuts and greys among the MKBs than in previous years. It used to be most were bays or dark bays with a smattering of chestnuts and a few greys.

3. Also there are many more ridglings this year. Don't know what's going on with that. But it doesn't seem to bother their sales prices or their ability. I even have one (UPSTART). :)

4. One more thing I noticed. There are many more million dollar horses in the MKB this year. They were spending with both fists in 2013/2014.

While awaiting Dan's weekly blog to be released, I compiled a list of 2015 Derby candidates who possess the pedigree power. The statistical bloodlines it takes to win the run for the roses. At least the ones who have graced us with their presence thus far. It must be noted that this trend is changing for the last two years produced identical bloodlines with Nasrullah on top and Native Dancer on bottom (In regards to sire and broodmare sire). However, I still prefer Native Dancer on top and Northern Dancer on the bottom..and it's due to hit! So here's the big ten..so far..

1. TEXAS RED 2. AMERICAN PHAROAH 3. KEEN ICE 4. OM 5. FIRST DOWN 6. KAMARIUS 7. LUCKY PLAYER 8. BLOFELD 9. INTERNATIONAL STAR 10. JESS'S DREAM

2014 Experimental Handicap

You may remember many years ago when the angle of "within 10 points of the highweight AND a DI (dosage index) of 4.00 or less" was actually a great harbinger of the Kentucky Derby winner. Well, it hasn't worked for many of the most recent Derbys. However, it just might work this year.

There are 13 MKBs that qualify this year on BOTH parameters, and they all look like good ones. :)

126 KATIEATTHERAIL'S Texas Red (1.55)

122 AOS RON ZUERCHER'S Carpe Diem (1.83)

121 AOS BERNARD DOWNES' Competitive Edge (3.00) 121 JIM LEHMAN'S Dortmund (2.38)

119 LAURA'S Daredevil (2.33) 119 KNM'S Blofeld (3.00)

118 CURTIS V SLEWSTER'S Ocho Ocho Ocho (2.11) 118 EDDIE BUSTER LEWIS'S Mr. Z (3.00) 118 YUWIPI'S El Kabeir (3.57)

117 YOU FEEL LUCKY'S Imperia (3.00)

116 DENNIS OF MOLINE'S Daddy D T (2.64) 116 ED B'S I Spent It (2.56) 116 ANNIE'S Upstart (3.00) (Oh good!)

You may ask, "Where is AMERICAN PHAROAH, the co-highweight on the Experimental?" AOS DICK W'S horse is not a "dual qualifier", as his DI is 4.33. Also, PAT GAVIN'S Calculator, rated at 117 lbs. has a DI of 5.67. Ouch! Well, we will see if it makes a difference, won't we? :)

One more MKB would have been a dual qualifier, PETER'S injured LEAVE THE LIGHT ON.

It will be interesting to see how this plays out with so many dual qualifiers this year (obviously, I'm only counting the MKBs as surely it will be another MKB winner, right?) :)

Good luck all!!!

I have convinced myself the winner of the will possess a sire line that leads to the infamous NATIVE DANCER. As of now, there several candidates who could potentially accomplish this feat but I narrowed it down to a dirty dozen. It would be wise to follow this group as the trail to Kentucky begins.

1. TEXAS RED 2. AMERICAN PHAROAH 3. OCEAN KNIGHT 4. INTERNATIONAL STAR 5. WISECRACKER 6. OCHO OCHO OCHO 7. KHOZAN 8. ROCK SHANDY 9. WAR STORY 10. EAGLE 11. NASA 12. COMPETITIVE EDGE

Far From Over is a sire-line descendant of the Royal Charger Ancestral Herd. Since 1990, 451 horses have run in the Kentucky Derby and 41 (9%) of those were descendants of the Royal Charger Ancestral herd. Of those 41 descendents, 13 (31%) finished in the top four of the Kentucky Derby.

Mr. Prospector Ancestral Herd = 121 runners (27%). 30 in top four (25%).

Nasrullah Ancestral Herd = 83 runners (18%). 19 in top four (23%)

Northern Dancer Ancestral Herd = 122 runners (27%). 23 in top four (19%).

And then there were 6! The manner in which AMERICAN PHAROAH floats over a racetrack is truly amazing. His stride and fluency is poetry in motion. In my opinion and thousands of others, he is the deserving favorite to win the 2015 Kentucky Derby.

Fortunately, we are down to a mere 5 candidates to upset him but they will all have to improve dramatically to contest the PHAROAH...

Annie.... Sorry about UPSTART not making the cut. Unfortunately for him, the last 2 runnings of the Derby have been won by horses with NASRULLAH in their sire line. I'm gambling a third year is out of the question...and I simply can't forgive the runners who participated in the Fountain of Youth. That race was dismal on many levels.
