Bob and John, the showman of California, known for his entertaining wins, is a horse that is no stranger to controversy. The name Bob and John pays homage to its owners, Bob McNair, and racing manager John Adger, and by pure coincidence, this horses' trainer, Bob Baffert, holds the same name as well. A son of Seeking the Gold, Bob and John is a large, beautiful, chocolate brown colored horse. Through his short career, Bob and John has earned his crown as a showman by often winning in a dazzling style, by numerous lengths, and on one occasion even controversially.

His first stakes "win" was taken away from him. Where at the Real Quiet Stakes at Hollywood Park he had finished first by six lengths, only to be disqualified and placed third for an interference with another horse in the midstretch. For Bob and John this was a minor setback, he bounced back by winning the Sham Stakes at Santa Anita only months later. With his impressive wins, Bob and John has established himself as a colt that can't be taken lightly.
