Tapit Shoes

Tapit Shoes is one of three of Brad Cox-trained contenders and arrives off a close second to returning rival Red Route One in the April 22 Bath House Row going nine furlongs at Oaklawn. The chestnut Tapit colt has made all five of his starts going two turns, including a second-out graduation by 7 1/2 lengths in December at Fair Grounds.

Tapit Shoes, out of the multiple graded stakes-placed Flower Alley mare Awesome Flower, is a half-brother to dual Grade 1-winning multimillionaire Cyberknife, who also was trained by Cox.
