Analysis: You might be surprised with this low ranking of Nyquist who I will admit is most likely the best horse in this crop. However, I do not like him going any further than a mile and one sixteenth. All of these Uncle Mo colts will have to prove to me they want more ground before I will believe in them going 10 furlongs. Time will tell…he’s very talented.
