Macbeth II
Macbeth II (foaled 1885 in Kentucky) was a horse who was the winner of the 1888 Kentucky Derby〔(Macbeth II Pedigree )〕 He was the third gelding and one of only nine geldings to win the Kentucky Derby, with the others being Vagrant (1876), Apollo (1882), Old Rosebud (1914), Exterminator (1918), Paul Jones (1920), Clyde Van Dusen (1929), Funny Cide (2003), and Mine That Bird (2009).〔(Macbeth II notes )〕
==Pedigree==
Macbeth was foaled at Lisland, the breeding farm of Rufus Lisle which was located two miles northwest of Lexington, Kentucky in an area called Leestown Pike.〔William Elsey Connelley and Ellis Merton Coulter. ( ''History of Kentucky''. ) 1922. page 243-244.〕 Lisle was widely known in the Thoroughbred racing circuit for refusing to pay for stud services, instead breeding his mares to stallions whose services he could obtain for free. This policy served him well because he consistently produced winners like Castaway II, 1890 Brooklyn Handicap winner.〔( ''New York Times.'' "Chance horse breeding." December 26, 1900. )〕 Macbeth raced at a time when the Kentucky Derby was not as highly regarded as it is today. Gelded at a young age, he was sired by Macduff, the 1881 Champagne Stakes winner and a son of the imported British stallion Macaroon.〔( Macbeth II Pedigree and Racing Stats )〕 Macduff also sired the colt McChesney, one of the top 3-year-olds in 1902, but was euthanized in 1899 after he lost popularity as a stud. Macbeth's dam was Agnes (by Gilroy), who also produced 1890 Tennessee Derby winner and third-place Kentucky Derby runner Robespierre.
