TZL is a very, very nice horse and can certainly prove me wrong today,
but I think anyone would have to question whether his record is a bit dressed up a bit + isn't going to be worth betting anywhere even close to the price he is going to go off at.
Horizontally, yes TLZ is a defensive include, but playing against vertically for the top spot. |
Slight correction. He only has one stakes win and that was at Los Alamitos. He did not run in the Lewis or the San Felipe.
I liked his win at Los Al and watching Thousand Words, who looked completely overmatched against him, come back and win the Shared Belief with the fastest Beyer in a 3yo prep, while beating the SA Derby winner, that validated Uncle Chuck a little bit more.
