Tiz the Law’s Tiz Dashing King of the ‘Hill’

[Wandering Eyes]

Sackatoga Stable's Tiz Dashing (Tiz the Law) was consigned to a bit of a wide trip in Saturday's GIII Hill Prince Stakes at Aqueduct but overcame that adversity to post a cozy success and become the newest stakes and graded stakes winner for his sire, who carried the very same color to victory in races like the GI Champagne Stakes, GI Belmont Stakes and GI Travers Stakes in 2019 and 2020.

Drawn widest in a field of nine and entering off a torrid trip when a flattening-out eighth in the Sept. 6 Gun Runner Stakes at Kentucky Downs last time, the $215,000 Fasig-Tipton November weanling was away smoothly and was able to get down into about the three path with cover on the back of longshot Lazlo (English Channel) as the rail-drawn Noble Confessor (Quality Road) galloped them along at a comfortable tempo.

Continuing to race covered up into the far turn, Tiz Dashing was pulled out three wide by Javier Castellano, went to the front three off the fence approaching the final furlong and held the resurgent pacesetter by a long neck. Church and State (Caravaggio) won a photo for third, while favored Stars and Strides (American Pharoah) enjoyed the run of the race from the box seat, but came up empty when the real running began to finish last but one.

“It's very special,” Sackatoga Managing Partner Jack Knowlton said when asked how it feels to win a race of this variety with a son of Tiz the Law. “This horse [Tiz Dashing] is the only time we've ever bought a weanling. I was with the Coolmore guys at the sale, and they told me, 'Jack, that's the horse you want to buy.' They were right.

“We're thrilled with how Tiz the Law is doing [at stud]–we just bought a yearling at the Maryland sale in September. We'll keep supporting our boy.”

Sackatoga acquired a colt out of Golden Delicious (Harlan's Holiday), bred on a similar cross to Tiz Dashing, for $100,000 at the Fasig-Tipton Midlantic Yearling Sale.

Pedigree Notes:

Tiz Dashing is the 10th stakes winner and fifth to strike at the graded level for Tiz the Law and is the first graded stakes winner for trainer Barclay Tagg since the 2021 GII Fort Lauderdale Stakes.

Tiz Dashing is one of two winners from three to race out of a winning daughter of Que Belle, winner of the G2 Henkel-Rennen (German 1000 Guineas) and G2 Preis der Diana (German Oaks) in 1997, champion of her generation at four and later the dam of GSWs Osidy (Storm Cat) and Quetsche (Gone West).

Breaking Beauty is the dam of the 2-year-old filly Just a Minute (Not This Time), a $325,000 Keeneland September yearling, a yearling colt by Charlatan that RNAd for $120,000 at KEENOV last fall and a weanling colt by Gunite. The mare was most recently covered by Prince of Monaco.

 

TIZ DASHING ($17.46) and @jjcjockey team up with Barclay Tagg and @sackatogastable to win the $200,000 Hill Prince Stakes (G3) at Aqueduct. Another graded stakes winner by @coolmoreamerica's Tiz The Law.
