Owned by Sackatoga Stable, Tiz the Law is a racehorse who knows how to do his job. At age two, he won the Champagne Stakes. This year, he won the Travers Stakes and the Belmont Stakes, and he’s the heavy favorite to take the 2020 Kentucky Derby title.
While Tiz the Law may seem born to run, much of his success has to be credited to his award-winning trainer, Barclay Tagg.
Barclay Tagg and horse analyst Gabby Sanchez join Steve Kenyon Western Sports Roundup to talk about the preparation and competition for the 2020 Derby, Tiz the Law and his New York owners at Sackatoga Stable (also the owners of the 2003 Kentucky Derby champion Funny Cide, trained by Tagg), and Tagg’s approach to working with race horses.
Tiz the Law has the No. 17 post position out of 18 horse positions. The Kentucky Derby kicks off tonight at 7PM ET.
