Tiz the Law Tops First NTRA 3-Year-Old Poll

With the Road to the Kentucky Derby starting to heat up, the flashy Tiz the Law stands as the one his classmates are chasing. Trained by Barclay Tagg, Tiz the Law sits atop the first edition of the National Thoroughbred Racing Association Top 3-Year-Old Poll with 17 first-place votes and 252 points following his season-opening triumph in the Holy Bull Stakes (G3) Feb. 1.

After Mucho Gusto started his year off with a handy victory in the Pegasus World Cup Invitational Stakes Presented by Runhappy (G1) Jan. 25, the Bob Baffert trainee finds himself on top once more in the initial NTRA Top Thoroughbred Poll of 2020.
