Bob Black Jack Wins Comeback

ARCADIA, Calif. (Feb. 20, 2010) -- Bob Black Jack returned to the races Saturday as if he never left 14 months ago, rolling to a speedy victory in the $150,000 Grade II San Carlos Handicap at Santa Anita.

Bob Black Jack is by Stormy Jack, out of the Native Prospector mare Molly�s Prospector, was bred by Gary Howard, Marlene Howard and Bruce Dunmore, was foaled at Hideaway Farms, is owned by Jeff Harmon and Tim Kasparoff and trained by James Kasparoff.

The $4,500 Barretts purchase has five wins in 11 starts, earnings of $684,925 and was making his first start since winning the Grade I Malibu Stakes Dec. 26, 2008.

"We�re looking at some races back east, and obviously keeping some races in mind out here," said James Kasparoff. "The Potrero Grande (Handicap, Grade II, $150,000, 6 � furlongs on April 3) is a possibility; Dubai (Golden Shaheen on March 27) is a possibility; so is the Gulfstream Handicap on March 21. It�s a one-turn mile, but it�s all going to be based on how he comes out of the race."

Bob Black Jack ran the seven furlongs in 1:21.05 and won by 2 � lengths at odds of 4-1.
