Nyquist had shock-wave therapy Sept. 29
By Jay Privman The unbeaten 2yo colt Nyquist worked a half-mile in 52 seconds today, and the work tab lists him as being on the vet's list. A check of the CHRB vet's list shows he had shock-wave therapy on Sept. 29, three days after he won the FrontRunner. This is a perfectly legal treatment, but rules are in place so horses can't race within a defined time after having the treatment. Being as Nyquist will not race again until the Breeders' Cup Juvenile on Oct. 31, he's well within the rules, but it certainly seems something worth noting/following over the next few weeks. Earlier this year, Firing Line had shockwave therapy in advance of the Sunland Derby, which he won. He later was second in the Kentucky Derby. He has not raced since the Preakness Stakes.
