Tiz the Law set for the Travers

No one in the Tiz the Law camp is in any real rush to get the Travers here, except for maybe Tiz the Law.

The 3-year-old colt put the finishing touches on his Midsummer Derby preparations with a five-furlong work early Saturday morning on the main track at Saratoga Race Course.

With exercise rider Heather Smullen in the saddle, the New York-bred champ of the Belmont Stakes was one of the first horses to step on the track, hitting it at 5:30 a.m. Accompanied by trainer Barclay Tagg on his pony, Tiz the Law went the distance in a time of 59.44 seconds.
