TIN TYPE GAL (f, 2, Tapit–Miss Shop {GISW, $1,126,038}, by Deputy Minister) did not factor in her 5 1/2 panel debut rained off the grass here July 30, but improved markedly in this first spin over the sod with a rallying victory Sunday afternoon. Away in good order, she secured position tracking the pace in third along the fence as Rebelle (Hard Spun) set a measured tempo through fractions of :24.83 and :49.30. The chestnut waited for running room on the turn, split horses in midstretch and rallied to edge past the stubborn pacesetter by 1 1/4 lengths on the wire. The homebred winner is a daughter of 2007 GI Personal Ensign H. victress Miss Shop from the same family of GSW & GISP Trappe Shot (Tapit). Lifetime Record: 2-1-0-0, $50,199.
