Mr. Z is a Malibu Moon and Stormy Beer colt trained by D. Wayne Lukas. He had three consecutive third place finishes in the G1 Los Alamitos Futurity, the Smarty Jones, and the G3 Southwest Stakes. However, his 9th place finish in the G2 Louisiana Derby likely has him off the Derby trail at this point. He does not have enough points to qualify and will need another prep race if he is to make an appearance.
