3rd-Churchill Downs, $118,675, Msw, 5-28, 3yo/up, 6f, 1:09.04, ft, 2 3/4 lengths.
TOP OF THE CHARTS (c, 3, Maclean's Music–Tiz Ro, by Hard Spun), bet down to 7.60-1 from a morning line of 12-1 found his way to the front in the early stages and widened through the final furlong to post an impressive 2 3/4-length debut success Saturday at Churchill Downs. The lone firster in a field of eight, the dark bay bounced well from the two hole and gradually–and with relative ease–worked his way to the front, covering the opening two furlongs in a smart :21.98. Ridden quietly on the turn by Declan Cannon, Top of the Charts was asked to kick in upper stretch, pinched an unassailable advantage into the final furlong and finished full of run to score by daylight in slick time. The victory was Cannon's first since last Sept. 13, when he suffered serious injuries in a spill. Top of the Charts is out of a winning daughter of Muskrat Suzie (Vice Regent), the dam of Canadian Classic and GI Arlington Million hero Jambalaya, whose sire Langfuhr was also a son of Danzig. Tiz Ro, also a half-sister to SW Riley Ripasso (Johannesburg), is the dam of the juvenile colt Canboulay (Honor Code) and a yearling filly by Lookin At Lucky named Destiny Ro. Lifetime Record: 1-1-0-0, $69,460. Click for the Equibase.com chart or VIDEO, sponsored by TVG.
