Tommy Town Thoroughbreds' 'TDN Rising Star' and GI Cotillion S. heroine It Tiz Well (Arch–It Tiz, by Tiznow) has been retired to Brookdale Farm in Kentucky and will be bred to Tapit in 2018, according to the farm's Twitter page. Unraced since her win at the highest level at Parx Sept. 23, the filly was forced to miss a start in the GI Breeders' Cup Distaff with a foot issue and recently emerged from a Dec. 30 workout with a bone chip in her ankle, according to numerous reports.
Named a 'Rising Star' after graduating from the maiden ranks at second asking at Los Alamitos in December 2016, the dark bay captured the GIII Honeybee S. at Oaklawn in March and the GIII Delaware Oaks in July. The Jerry Hollendorfer trainee knocked on the door at the Grade I level with a third in the Santa Anita Oaks in April and a runner-up finish in the Alabama in August before finally breaking through with a victory in the Cotillion. She retires with a record of 5-2-2 from 10 starts and earnings totaling $1,130,840.
Tommy Town purchased It Tiz Well for $230,000 as a Keeneland September yearling.
