1st-Del Mar, $75,500, Msw, 8-31, 2yo, f, 6f, 1:10.07, ft, 1 1/2 lengths. NON COMPLIANT (f, 2, Tiz the Law--Sensitively {GSP, $190,415}, by Street Sense) took the stage and debuted as the 5-2 second choice here. The filly set up shop behind a wall of horses up the backstretch which included stablemate and favorite Usha (Tiz the Law). Under a hard hold, the 2-year-old began to look for running room entering the far turn and with a three-wide move at the quarter pool she was locked and loaded. As Usha...

Out On Bail (c, 2, Tiz the Law--Judge Lee, by Street Cry {Ire}) became the first stakes winner for his freshman sire (by Constitution) by delivering a hard-fought win in Friday's $150,000 Skidmore Stakes sprinting over the turf at Saratoga. Favored at 3-2 while facing only three rivals, the gray was always traveling nicely while racing in an outside second as Jet Sweep Joe (Frosted) showed the way. The two arrived at the quarter pole together and raced shoulder to shoulder down the stretch. After exchanging bumps close to home,...

SARATOGA SPRINGS, N.Y.--Hall of Fame trainer Todd Pletcher promised that he would enter three of his horses for Saturday's $1 million NYRA Bets GI Haskell Stakes at Monmouth Park.

It remains to be seen how many of them actually take the trip from the Spa City to...

SING SING (c, 2, Tiz the Law--Galileo's Melody, by Galileo {Ire}), trying the turf and a mile for the first time, went wire-to-wire to graduate by a half-length at Ellis Park Sunday.

Away alertly from gate five, the $25,000 KEESEP yearling settled between horses in the second flight through the opening five furlongs.

Consignor Tom McCrocklin had already sold the sale-topping daughter of Tiz the Law at the Ocala Breeders' Sales Company's Spring sale when he decided to purchase another daughter of the GI Belmont S. winner after watching her fail to meet her reserve at that same auction two months ago. The filly (hip 187) went a ways in proving it was a wise decision when she worked a quarter-mile in a bullet :20 2/5 during Wednesday's second session of the under-tack show for next week's OBS June Sale of 2-Year-Olds in...
