Tiz the Law’s Fully Subscribed Clear Winner of Comely

[Wandering Eyes]

On paper, it appeared that the GIII Comely Stakes was Fully Subscribed (Tiz the Law)'s to lose following a strong victory in the GII Mother Goose Stakes over the same track and trip last month.

Come race day, the chestnut filly never really gave her backers an anxious moment as she came from just off the pace to win by a comfortable 4-length margin over Quietside (Malibu Moon) at the Big A on Sunday.

Sharp at the start, the Chad Brown trainee settled in an outside stalking position behind Kappa Kappa (Omaha Beach), who led the way through a :24.01 opening quarter. Still hounding the pacesetter through a :49.23 half, the 1-2 favorite was given her cue leaving the far turn before overtaking the early leader turning for home. Quietside held on over Ourdaydreaminggirl (Instagrand) in third.

Fourth-place finisher Yes It Tiz (Tiz the Law), who tossed her head at the start and was caught in the hand of the assistant starter, was ultimately declared a non-starter.

In charge from there, she drew off handily, and despite Quietside's best effort to narrow the gap down the stretch, it was Fully Subscribed on top at the wire.

“We thought the one on the outside [Quietside] and Johnny would go [forward] but it was a bit of a messy start and my filly jumped so well, I didn't want to take anything away from her,” said winning rider Flavien Prat. “It felt like the pace wasn't crazy and I wanted to keep her in a good position, but [Chad Brown] told me she was a good filly and she had a good run–and she showed it.”

He added, “She gave herself a good trip. She broke very well and I was able to get myself in the race and kind of stick with the filly of Johnny Velazquez [Kappa Kappa]. I felt like I was in control the whole way.”

Regarding the runner-up finisher, jockey Ricardo Santana Jr. said, “Second best. Good trip, but we were second best…The one thing I can tell you is that winner is a monster.”

A 4-length winner over next out winner Sharp Smile (Practical Joke) in a seven-furlong Aqueduct maiden in her sole start at two, the Kentucky-bred came home third stepping up to a mile in a Saratoga allowance in her return to the race in September. Adding an eighth of a mile in her return to Aqueduct, the Klaravich Stables-owned filly was a neck second facing optional claiming foes, however, bounced back to go one better in her graded stakes appearance on Nov. 8.

 

Pedigree Notes:
The second foal to race out of minor winner Sweet Baby, Fully Subscribed has a year-younger sister by Union Rags in addition to a yearling sister by Highly Motivated. Out of GI Del Mar Oaks winner and millionaire Rutherienne (Pulpit), the filly's 12-year-old dam produced a full-brother to the Comely winner this season and was bred back to Maxfield.
