Mac’s Mother, Jilly Mac has a pedigree sporting names like Mineshaft, AP Indy and Mr. Prospector. Mineshaft Jilly Mac’s father is well known for winning the Eclipse Award 2003 Horse of the Year and topping 2 million in career earnings. 

 No matter his lineage Mac was not a chip off the old block with career earnings over 3K. Possibly the most notable moment in his race career happened in his yearling year at the Fasig-Tipton sale where he was sold for 35K. (See a video of Mac on the track below)
