Nyquist Resumes In The Haskell Invitational

Kentucky Derby winner Nyquist will pick up his career in the G1 Haskell Invitational Stakes at Monmouth Park on July 31.

The Doug O’Neill trained 3YO worked five furlongs in 59 flat at Santa Anita with regular pilot Mario Gutierrez aboard.

O’Neill later gave the green light forNyquist to run at Monmouth after a meeting with owner Paul Reddam.

“He very much impressed us this morning with his work,” O’Neill told Monmouth Park officials.

“He looked really solid. We’re pumped up and can’t wait to get to New Jersey.”

“He’ll ship down to Del Mar and train there,” O’Neill revealed. “We don’t have specific shipping plans just yet, but we’ll work that out over the next week or so.”

Nyquist was last seen finishing third in the G1 Preakness Stakes at Pimlico on May 17, his only loss in nine career starts.

The five-time G1 winner was then forced to miss the G1 Belmont Stakes after he came down with a mild illness.
