Among the graded stakes winners they have campaigned are Cloud Computing, Economic Model, Flexibility, Pricedtoperfection, Takeover Target, Balance the Books, Sum of the Parts and Currency Swap. • Since Klarman is a baseball fan and a minority owner of the Boston Red Sox, he and Lawrence have raced stakes winners Fenway Faithful and Yawkey Way. • Klaravich enters the 2018 Breeders’ Cup with the strong hand of two Chad Brown-trained horses, who each earned starting berths through the “Win and You’re In” series. Multiple Grade 1 winner and Longines Test (G1) winner Separationofpowers contests the Filly & Mare Sprint and Champagne Stakes (G1) winner Complexity runs in the Juvenile. • Under the Klaravich banner in 2017 Frizette (G1) winner Separationofpowers was 4th in the Juvenile Fillies and Voting Control finished third in the Juvenile Turf. • Klaravich’s Newspaperofrecord, who won the Miss Grillo Stakes (G2), is probable for the Juvenile Fillies Turf. • Patternofrecognoition, winner of the Kelso Handicap (G2) in 2018, is also a possible Breeders’ Cup starter for Klaravich Stables and Lawrence this year. • In 2017, Practical Joke was 4th in the Dirt Mile.

Klarman grew up down the street from Pimlico. • Lawrence said “about 95 percent” of his and Klarman’s horses have financially oriented names, but opted for a more conventional method with Practical Joke, whose name is based on his breeding: by Into Mischief out of the Distorted Humor mare Halo Humor … “We broke the mold in naming him and maybe he’ll be something special,” Lawrence said. • Klarman also won the Grade 1 Hopeful in 2011 with Currency Swap. • Prior to joining forces with Lawrence, Klarman’s top horses included multiple-Grade 1 winner Subordination, who earned $1.2 million … He won the Grade 1 Eddie Read in 1998 and Grade 1 Hollywood Derby in 1997 … His other wins included the 1998 Belmont Breeders’ Cup Handicap (G2) and Brooklyn Handicap (G2) and 1997 Jamaica Handicap (G2) … He also owned Read the Footnotes, winner of the 2004 Fountain of Youth (G2) and the 2003 Remsen (G2) and Nashua (G3). • Klarman was recently listed by Forbes magazine as having a net worth valued at $1.5 billion as of October 12, 2018 and his foundation’s assets were $520 million as of the last filing. • His book “Margin of Safety,” is considered a cult classic among investors … Also a noted philanthropist, his foundation’s assets hit $540 million as of the latest public filing, according to Forbes magazine … Owns the digital, English-language Israeli newspaper Times of Israel. • Once a major donor to the Republican Party, he has publicly denounced President Donald Trump and is now a contributor to the Democratic party and a registered Independent..
