Grade II winner Commitisize, who was a graded stakes winner four consecutive years, has arrived at Sean and Barbara Kelly's Wycombe House Stud near Ocala, Fla., where he will stand for $4,500 live foal. A $777,577-earner, Commitisize raced his entire career for Mike Pegram, who will retain ownership.

Trained by Bob Baffert in Southern California, Commitisize won five of his eight stakes at either Santa Anita or Hollywood Park, taking the El Rincon (gr. IIT), Cinema (gr. IIIT), and Arcadia (gr. III) Handicaps, plus the Hollywood Prevue (gr. III) and La Puente Stakes. Outside the state, he captured the U. S. A Stakes and Buick Turf Classic Stakes at Lone Star Park and the Cumberland Stakes at Ellis Park. His six stakes-placings included efforts in the Del Mar Futurity (gr. II), Baldwin (gr. IIIT) and Generous Stakes (gr. IIIT), and the Will Rogers Handicap (gr. IIIT).

Six-year-old Commitisize, who was produced from the Tsunami Slew mare Goodbye Heart, was retired with 10 wins from 31 starts. He is a half-brother to stakes winner Perfect Six.
