Nobiz like Shobiz broke his maiden (also his first start) in the 2nd race at Belmont on the 9th of this month. He is trained by Barclay Tagg (my fav. trainer!). He beat Bullara by 10 lengths without even being hand ridden down the stretch (although I think that the Cornelio used the stick to get by Bullara at the top of the stretch). He ran the mile in 135.26, which was the second fastest out of four at the distance on that day. It was unbelievable for a first time out. He is a beautiful animal and has such a pretty way of going. He impressed me a lot more than Tiz Wonderful or Prime Ruler did in their maidens.

Hip #8 is located in the March sale at barretts.com. of this year. He is a very beautiful moving Orientate who is fast, fast, fast.

I really wasn't blown away as everyone else was by Nobiz. I thought he passed a horse who was gasping and it made him look a lot better than he was. Behind the gasper who held 2nd place was absolutely nothing.
I'd really have to see him do something again before I went nuts over him. Call me skeptical.
