Tiznow's First Graded Stakes Winner

Postby llbean » Wed Jul 27, 2005 5:35 pm

It's almost too good to be true... Tiznow's already got a G2 Winner in the shape of the recent Adirondack Winner Folklore. Folklore defeated the Fashion Stakes Winner Fifth Avenue to do it...

Take that, Monarchos!

I'm really surprised (but delighted) that he's doing so well in these early 2yo races.

same here, Sparta. One of the biggest thrills I've experienced was seeing him win the Breeders Cup Classic for the second time at Belmont. He was magnificently imposing in the paddock and on the track, and I'm happy to see that the "blue collar" champion is off to a great start!

I always hoped he will be a good sire, and since I saw some of his foals, I started to believe it. But this... :shock:

Tiz now has another foal named Tiz Divine out of Her Halo who I used to take care of many years ago. :D

The test of a stallion is to consistently produce those superior runners.

Tiz Now is off to a good start but it is far to early to judge where he will fit in the A B C stallion catagory.

After a few more crops that ? will be answered.
