ARCADIA, Calif. – Nyquist is picking up in 2016 where he left off in 2015, at least in the morning.

The champion 2-year-old of 2015 after winning all five starts, including the Breeders’ Cup Juvenile, Nyquist posted a solid one-mile workout Sunday at Santa Anita and is on target for a Feb. 15 comeback in the Grade 2, seven-furlong San Vicente Stakes.

ARCADIA, Calif. - Smokey Image, the unbeaten California-bred 3-year-old, worked seven furlongs in 1:26.60 on Saturday for a scheduled start in the $250,000 California Cup Derby at Santa Anita on Jan. 30.

Victor Espinoza was aboard for the workout.

Trainer Carla Gaines said on Saturday she would make a final decision on Smokey Image’s participation in the California Cup Derby for statebreds at the beginning of the week.

ARCADIA, Calif. - Hoppertunity, the three-time stakes winner who finished third in the Grade 2 San Pasqual Stakes on Jan. 9, is being pointed for the $500,000 San Antonio Stakes at Santa Anita on Feb. 6.

“I think he’ll like that track,” Baffert said of the dirt surface at Meydan.

HOT SPRINGS, Ark. – The promising 2-year-olds whom trainer Donnie Von Hemel unveiled last season in Kentucky and Oklahoma have blossomed into formidable 3-year-olds for the stakes program at Oaklawn Park.

OZONE PARK, N.Y. – Susanne Stover has resigned from her position as chief financial officer for the New York Racing Association. Her last day was Jan. 15.

Two sources said Stover was taking a similar position with Johnny Rockets, the restaurant chain headquartered in Southern California. Before coming to NYRA, Stover worked for two restaurant chains, including California Pizza Kitchen.

Stover was hired by NYRA in February 2012 and replaced Ellen McClain, who had been elevated from CFO to chief executive of NYRA.

OZONE PARK, N.Y. – Jockey Dylan Davis will be out three to four months after sustaining a tear in the labrum of his left shoulder in a spill last Sunday at Aqueduct. Davis will undergo surgery to repair the shoulder within the next week to 10 days, according to his agent, Nick Soulis.

Davis, 21, was one of three jockeys unseated in Sunday’s last race. Anthony Suarez was unseated when his mount, Thirty Percent, clipped heels with the horse on the lead. He fractured his sternum and will be out about a month, according to trainer Mark Tasso, for whom Suarez rides in the morning.

HALLANDALE BEACH, Fla. – Trainer Kiaran McLaughlin was extremely pleased with the performance of Penwith here Thursday. Penwith returned from an 11-month layoff to register a two-length allowance victory over the graded-stakes-placed Stiffed under confident handling by jockey Joel Rosario.

“It was a great effort off a long layoff,” said McLaughlin.

The Grade 2 stakes-placed Penwith had been sidelined because of a small ankle chip.

“With the time off, she’s matured into a real beautiful mare,” said McLaughlin. “Hopefully, we have a stakes filly on our hands.”
