First Winner for Freshman Knicks Go at Horseshoe Indianapolis Tuesday

[Wandering Eyes]

Taylor Made Stallions resident freshman Knicks Go (Paynter) was represented by his first career winner Tuesday when Ziggity Zag came from off the pace to score at Horseshoe Indianapolis.

Campaigned by Flying Dutchman, the Kentucky bred filly was installed the 3-1 second choice for this unveiling. Reserved in a stalking position as longshot Dreaming Collect (Collected) carved out an opening quarter mile in :22.50, the grey kept the pacesetter in her sights through a :47.26 half. Asked for more by Nic Juarez turning for home, she found the early leader tough to run down late, however, she was able to get to the front in the final jump, winning by a neck. Favored Nanina (Ger) (No Nay Never) closed to be third.

The first foal out of Lounge Act (Creative Cause), Ziggity Zag has a foal sister by Beau Liam.
