EZ TINA (f, 2, Golden Pal-Risk Model, by Into Mischief), the priciest of dual Breeders' Cup winner Golden Pal (by Uncle Mo)'s first yearlings last year, flaunted her speed on debut Sunday at Woodbine. Favored at 6-5, she went straight to the front out of the gate, set an uncontested first quarter fraction of :23.23, did the same through a :46.22 half as Pietro Moran sat chilly, and hustled home with minimal encouragement over the all-weather surface by 4 3/4 lengths in :58.01 for the five furlongs while never threatened. Ohana Lulu (Aloha West), seeking to became her own freshman sire's first winner, raced midpack throughout on the inside and chased her home in second.
Ez Tina is the third winner this spring for Golden Pal, who stands at Coolmore's Ashford Stud. Like her sire, Ez Tina is trained by Wesley Ward, who also trains Golden Pal's first winner, Skara Brae.
Risk Model, the Sunday winner's dam, was a $275,000 Jody Huckabay buy at the 2023 Keeneland November sale with Ez Tina in utero. A half-sister to MGSW Dr B (Liam's Map), she produced a filly by Constitution last year and was bred to Good Magic for 2026.
