In Fresh Orleans it was two -time grass winner Tizastby Youthful Sire Tiz The Law (constitution), which gathered from around 10 lengths of the pace, to win the Louisiana Derby in the amount of 1 million US dollar (G2) for Winchell -Genstbreds and the owner group of Mrs. John Magnier, Derrick Smith and Michael Tabor with 1 3/16 miles. Steve Asmussen Trains and Joel Rosario drove.

Louisiana Derby
The D. Wayne Lukas Cool Caldera went on his knees from the gates when John Hancock took the lead directly through a speedy 22.99 and 46.84. Tiztastic and another well -being, the immediate repetition, were second and last in the background. In the last round, John Hancock was raved about a brief tour and a piece of gold made a movement. Tiztastic had driven up the rail and emigrated three into the route to take the lead. With 2 1/4 lengths over gold, it remained with an immediate repetition, which was trained by Brad Cox and the fastest was closed by everyone.
Tiztastic covered the 1 3/16 miles in 1: 56.20 for a career as the best 95 Beyer Speed figure. The trainers and jockey combination have teamed up to win the 2022 Louisiana Derby with Epicenter.
“We thought he would run bigger in the southwest. Since he hadn't driven his race and he had trained so well here, we brought him back here because he knew that he needed more distance. He stepped forward when he needs it. The horse has a great mind on him. He has driven a solid race, but I think it's more in him.”
Tiztastic was fifth in his debut in Saratoga and then won two races on the lawn of Kentucky Downs, including the 998,000 dollar youth mile. He was second of sovereignty (Fountain of Youth winner) in the streets Sense Stakes (G3) and third in the Kentucky Jockey Club (G2).
This year, the purchase of 335,000 US dollars in the Southwest Stakes (G3) took third place and a flat fifth in the Rebel Stakes (G2), the last two races in the Oaklawn Park.
Rosario was the sixth driver for Tiztastic. The Colt comes from the first harvest of Tiz The Law and his Damm Keesha from Tapit did not drive, but has four foines winners to the race. The fifth dam of Tiztastic is the Canadian Halo response, which was a two-time stakes winner at Woodbine for owner Bill Hodgson. The Halo response produced the Canadian prayer bike, which in turn produced the 23-year-old Stut foal from 1993 in the strategic maneuver of the United States.
In the Turfway Park
Similar to the Louisiana Derby, there were some rugged things at the beginning of the race (which also remained unnoticed by the route announcement), when four horses displaced and bumped at the beginning. A quick pace developed at the front, in which Charlies blamed 22.97 and 47.41. The preferred poster for Godolphin and coach Eoin Harty had a good trip and a few lengths of the pace.
In the last curve, both California Burrito and Giacoso made huge, early movements, while the final gambit under Luan Machado was angled by the rail and moved back 4 out of nine lengths. While the California Burrito made a clear lead in the track, the last gambit flew on the seven path, although flying Mohawk was moving. The last gambit blew in 1:50 by 3 1/2 length and made a win of 15 to 1.
Final Gambit's four former career races were a second and a victory in Maiden race in Turfway with 66 and 64 Beyer figures.
The dam of the gray colts, Pachinko, a gray daughter of Tapit, was a unique winner in nine races for Juddmonte, who belonged to the tardy Prince Khalid bin Abdullah. Pachinko was bred by Juddmonte, such as the second dam, Hachita and the third Damm Choice Spirit. The fourth Damm Zaizafon produced Champion Zafonic Who Rast for Juddmonte.
