+TIZNOBLE (c, 2, Tiznow–Tamboz, by Tapit) worked six times in preparation for this career debut but that proved to be more than enough, as the gray notched a dominant 5 1/4-length victory over Cherry Wine (Paddy O’Prado). Sent postward at odds of 5-1, Tiznoble went straight to the front and led through a half-mile in :49 4/5 with I’ll Give You War (War Chant) applying only token pressure. Never truly threatened turning for home, the colt was kept to his task and finished strongly, well clear of the others. Cherry Wine was a further 10 1/4 lengths ahead of the remainder. The winner is a half to Oceanwave (Harlan’s Holiday), MGSP, $245,449. Tamboz, a full-sister to GI Breeders’ Cup Dirt Mile winner Tapizar, foaled colts by Unbridled’s Song in 2014 and Into Mischief in 2015. She was bred back to Distorted Humor.
