“She did very well this morning,” confirmed Reid, Jr. “I had her galloping out in 1:01 and 2, and in about 1:15 [three quarters]. She's fitter than I thought she was. She's actually a little ahead of schedule. I wanted her ready to go five-eighths on the first of August and she's a little ahead of that. I'm very happy with her progress. She's coming along nicely. If everything works out, she could run here before the end of the meet.”

“She's been training lightly down at Fair Hill Training Center in Maryland and she'll be coming back to my barn at Parx in the next 10 days,” said Reid, Jr. “We're looking forward to a fall campaign with her and have our eye on the Cotillion. I could see us possibly getting her a start at the end of Saratoga. We're excited to get her back in action.”

Winner of the GI Spinaway S. at Saratoga last summer, Vequist followed up with a second in Belmont's GI Frizette S. in October before annexing the GI Breeders' Cup Juvenile Fillies at Keeneland.

Vequist was shelved after finishing ninth in her seasonal debut in the GII Davona Dale S. at Gulfstream in February.
