Mucho Macho Man was sired by Macho Uno. Macho Uno beat Point Given in the 2000 BC Juvy. Point Given was favored in the 2001 Kentucky Derby.
I think Midnight Interlude is interesting because he was sire by War Chant who ran in the Kentucky Derby.
Uncle Mo probably won't be favored, but his sire, Indian Charlie, was favored in the 1998 Kentucky Derby.
Brilliant Speed is one that you simply have to respect because his sire was the sire of 2006 Derby winner Barbaro.
Also, I'm sure there is a $10k claimer somewhere between now and Derby Day featuring a horse trained by John Servis. John Servis trained 2004 Derby winner Smarty Jones.
