Coming into this maiden with a number of bullet works to his credit, COPIOUS (Curlin) will debut in the colors of Tranquility Lake Farms for trainer Bill Mott. With four bullets at Payson and two over the Oklahoma training track, the chestnut is the son of MGISW Paradise Woods (Union Rags) and hails from the immediate female family of MGSW & GISP Mr. Greeley (Gone West). His dam's half-sister Paradise Bay (Blame) has produced SW Reef Runner (This Big Beast) and his full-brother SW Big Paradise, and another multiple-winning half-sister claims MGSP Lady Aces (Constitution).

To his inside is stablemate Stars and Strides (American Pharoah) for owners Pin Oak Stud. A $475,000 KEESEP pick-up in 2023, the bay is a half-brother to SW Panther Island (Speightstown) and the pair is out of a thrice-winning half-sister to MSW & GSP Wine Police (Speightstown) and SP Moon Traveler (Malibu Moon).  TJCIS PPs
