Nysos to Miss One Month of Training After `Minor’ Setback
Nysos (Nyquist), the top-ranked horse in the NTRA's poll of top three-year-olds, will miss one month of training after a `minor' setback, said the colt's trainer, Bob Baffert, by text Tuesday afternoon.
“(Nysos) will be out of training,” Baffert texted. “Tack-walking for 30 days. No plans.” Asked exactly what the setback was, Baffert replied, “minor.”
Nysos is a perfect three-for-three, breaking his maiden at Santa Anita in October, winning the GIII Bob Hope S. in November, and then winning the GIII Robert B. Lewis S. in February. HIs combined margin of victory is 26 3/4 lengths.
The colt has not worked since Feb. 25, raising questions about his condition.
