Profile: Bob Black Jack is a bit of a unique case in where he was better sprinting, but could hang with the routers as well. After all he did hit the board in the Santa Anita Derby and was 16th in the 2008 Kentucky Derby where he finished ahead of G1 winners Monba and Gayego among others. He also set a world record in the Sunshine Millions Dash and picked up 3 wins in the California Breeders' Champion, San Carlos and of course the Malibu.

Sire: Stormy Jack won several stakes races and is G3 placed. As a sire Bob is his best foal, but he also has stakes placed Daylight Storm and stakes winner Quinnette.

Dam: Molly's Prospector won 1 race in her career and Bob is her best foal. She is also a 1/2 sister to G3 placed What a Spell.

Broodmare Sire: Native Prospector won 4 times in a 21 race career. His best foal earnings wise is G2 placed Subtle Trouble.

Preferred Surface: Bob ran primary on synthetic surface. However, both of his parents won on dirt.

Potential Success: Depending on the mares that he got, I would say Top 60 with 2 or 3 stakes winners with 1 in open company.
