GRETZKY THE GREAT (c, 2, Nyquist–Pearl Turn {MSP, $182,560}, by Bernardini), sent off the hot 1-2 choice, jumped out to an early advantage, led through splits of :22.77 and :45.09 and turned on all boosters late, crossing the wire 4 1/2 lengths ahead of Liars Club (Broken Vow). The Ontario bred kicked off his career for Mark Casse with a second-place effort sprinting five panels over the local turf July 12 behind Ready to Repeat (More Than Ready), who would go on to air in the Victoria S. later on this card. Gretzky the Great’s victory made him the second winner for his freshman sire (by Uncle Mo). The Darley stallion recorded his third winner minutes later in Saratoga’s sixth race with Lady Lilly. Gretzky the Great has a yearling half-brother by Quality Road and his dam, who was multiple stakes-place routing on the dirt before being acquired for $310,000 by David Anderson in foal to Pioneerof the Nile at KEENOV ’16, was bred to Nyquist’s sire for 2021.

Dream Quist Becomes First Winner At Stud For Nyquist

Although favored at Churchill Downs last month, Nyquist's 2-year-old filly Dream Quist didn't quite seem to take to the sloppy going in her first start. However, she appears to have learned from the experience as she broke her maiden at Ellis Park to give her Kentucky Derby-winning sire his first winner as a stallion.

Although getting knocked around a bit at the start, Dream Quist didn't waste time getting into position and was soon tracking in third after a quarter of a mile.

As the field approached the turn, she took aim at the leader and sprinted by that one at the top of the stretch. The odds-on favorite passed tiring horses late to grab second but Dream Quist was 4 1/2 lengths clear at the wire.

Dream Quist was bred by Seclusive Farm LLC, Chester and Anne Prince, and James Murphy in Kentucky. She is out of listed winner Seacrettina who is a half to G2-placed Ramsgate.

Dream Quist was a $265,000 yearling at Fasig-Tipton in 2019, a year in which Nyquist was the leading first-crop yearling sire by average. In 2020, he is the leading 2-year-old sire by median.

Nyquist resides at Darley's U.S. base in Lexington, Ky., where he stood the 2020 breeding season for an advertised fee of $40,000.

Nyquist Filly Relishes Stretch Out to Become Sire’s First Winner

C&H Diamond Racing LLC & Baccari Racing Stable’s Dream Quist (Nyquist) improved significantly on the stretch out at Ellis Sunday to become the first winner for her freshman sire (by Uncle Mo). A debut fifth as the favorite sprinting in the Churchill slop June 28, the $265,000 Fasig-Tipton October yearling was off as the 5-2 second choice this time but was bumped from both sides leaving the gate. She moved up in between horses to sit perched in third and tugged her way up to challenge the pacesetter heading for home after a half in :48 flat. She started to wear down the frontrunner at the quarter pole, and spurted clear as they straightened to kick away convincingly by 3 3/4 lengths. Odds-on favorite Bahama Mischief (Into Mischief), a $300,000 KEESEP yearling who was a close second on debut at Churchill June 26, rallied to complete the chalky exacta.

Dream Quist, who sold on the final day of the final major yearling sale of 2019, is out of a mare who earned a 95 Beyer Speed Figure when taking a Lone Star sprint stakes race as a July juvenile. Dam Seacrettina (Sea of Secrets) produced an American Pharoah filly in 2019 and was bred to Street Sense for 2021.

The winner’s sire, a champion juvenile who would go on to take the 2016 GI Kentucky Derby before retiring to Darley, led all first-crop sires by yearling average last season at $236,318.

The first session of the Fasig-Tipton Midlantic 2-Year-Olds in Training Sale's under tack show kicked off on Wednesday with a Liam's Map colt taking the spotlight among the juveniles working a quarter-mile.

Soaring Free, Canada's 2004 Horse of the Year, can be found in this colt's page, along with Canadian champion Regal Intention. He is consigned by L.G., agent.
