Posted on Sunday, January 4th, 2009
Tizfiz provided jockey Agapito Delgadillo and race horse trainer Rafael DeLeon with their most prestigious career victories Sunday, January 4, in Santa Anita Park’s 40th running of the $150,000 San Gorgonio Handicap.
At the age of 42, jockey Agapito Delgadillo guided the 5-year-old Tiznow mare Tizfiz through moderate fractions during the 1 1/8-mile turf course while preserving just enough to repel the closing bid of 2-1 second choice Marzelline by a nose at odds of 9-1.
Marzelline, with jockey Victor Espinoza in the irons, closed steadily on the outside to narrowly miss while finishing 1/2 length ahead of third-place Solar Miss, ridden by jockey Garrett Gomez, in the field of 8. Valbenny, the 2-1 favorite with jockey Alex Solis aboard, checked in a well-beaten fourth.
