Grade 1 winner at 2 and 3
MUTH is the only son of Good Magic to become a Grade 1 winner at both 2 and 3, replicating the same accomplishment achieved by his sire. He earned nearly $1.6 million during his career, highlighted by victories in the American Pharoah (G1) and Arkansas Derby (G1).
A $2 million two-year-old purchase by Donato Lanni on behalf of Zedan Racing Stables, MUTH broke his maiden by 8 ¾ lengths on debut at Santa Anita, earning him TDN ‘Rising Star’ status.
He further established himself as a top 2-year-old, with a 3 ¾-length triumph in the American Pharoah Stakes (G1), finishing with a time of 1:42.45 – the fastest time since American Pharoah himself won the race (formerly the Frontrunner S.). He finished the season with a runner-up effort in the Breeders’ Cup Juvenile (G1).
At 3, MUTH won his first three starts, all stakes, by open lengths… including the Arkansas Derby (G1) (where he defeated eventual Kentucky Derby winner Mystik Dan), the San Vincente (G2), and the Shared Belief Stakes.
“The natural speed shown by MUTH as a Grade 1 winning two-year-old, and his ability to carry that speed to a Grade 1 victory over 1 ⅛ at three is very impressive,” said Gainesway General Manager, Brian Graves. “MUTH’s looks are exactly what you would expect of a $2 million purchase by Bob [Baffert] and Donato [Lanni].”
MUTH hails from the family of Grade 1 winners War Command, Hit the Road, Charles Dickens (dual champion in South Africa), Rollout the Carpet (champion in New Zealand), etc.
