Darley in America has announced that Reddam Racing’s Nyquist, winner of the 2015 G1 Breeders’ Cup Juvenile, will stand at its Jonabell Farm in Lexington, Kentucky, once his racing career is completed.
The Juvenile was the third career G1 victory for Nyquist, who previously won both the Del Mar Futurity and the Frontrunner Stakes. Undefeated in five career starts, Nyquist also lists the G2 Best Pal among his five victories and has now earned $1,613,600.
J. Paul Reddam, who along with wife Zillah also campaigned Kentucky Derby winner I’ll Have Another and other Breeders’ Cup Juvenile winner Wilko said, “Doug O’Neill and his team have done a tremendous job in getting Nyquist to this point and we are eagerly looking forward to his three-year-old season next year. I’m equally impressed by Darley and its stallion program. They do an incredible job of overseeing the long careers of their sires and I am grateful that Nyquist’s next job will be managed by another incredible team.”
Dan Pride, COO of Darley in America, commented, “We couldn’t be any more excited about having Nyquist join our stallion roster when he retires. His performance on Saturday was absolutely thrilling and we are thankful to Paul and Zillah Reddam for allowing us to take over the reins when Nyquist begins his new career.”
Nyquist is a son of leading juvenile sire and G1 Breeders’ Cup Juvenile winner Uncle Mo and is out of the winning Forestry mare, Seeking Gabrielle. His second dam Seeking Regina, who is a full sister to Listed winner Oxford Scholar, won the G2 Adirondack Stakes. Seeking Regina’s daughter Seeking the Sky won the G3 Interborough Handicap and has produced two Stakes winners, including G1 Metropolitan Handicap winner Sahara Sky.
Nyquist will continue to race in the colors of Reddam Racing and will remain in training with Doug O’Neill.
