Maggi Moss's No Parole (Violence), a 14 1/4-length debut winner here Dec. 15-good for a 90 Beyer Speed Figure-again proved too much for his Louisiana-bred foes to handle as he romped to become the third 'TDN Rising Star' of the day and second by Hill 'n' Dale's Violence. Off at prohibitive 1-5 odds, the $75,000 KEESEP yearling seized command early in the wet going, clicked off splits of :21.79 and :44.45 and cruised home all by his lonesome with just a couple of reminders before being geared down late to canter under the line 13 1/4 lengths to the good in 1:10.24. Palvera (My Pal Charlie) was best of the rest.

The winner's dam was a stakes-winning turf sprinter at Penn National and hails from the extended female family of graded winners License Fee (Black Tie Affair {Ire}) and Greeley's Galaxy (Mr. Greeley). She has a short yearling filly by Connect.

These connections also took the Orleans S. Friday night at Delta Downs with speedy A Thousand Reasons (Munnings). For more on trainer Tom Amoss and No Parole after his debut score, click here.
