Nyquist , sire of four grade 1 winners in 2025 including Breeders' Cup Dirt Mile (G1) winner Nysos, will stand for a fee of $175,000 at Darley's Jonabell Farm near Lexington in 2026.
Nyquist will again top the Jonabell roster after a 2025 season which also included grade 1 victories by Cavalieri, Velocity, and Argos, plus graded/group wins by Crimson Advocate, Gosger, Verity, Tenma, Johannes , and Randomized. In North America only Into Mischief can top his total of four grade 1 winners and 10 grade 1 horses in 2025, according to the farm.
His graded-winning daughters were in high demand at Fasig-Tipton's The November Sale in Lexington Nov. 3. Tenma led the way, selling for $3.2 million to Katsumi Yoshida, with Randomized ($2.5 million to Yoshida) and Velocity ($1.2 million to Pin Oak Stud) also bringing seven figures.
Nyquist was also represented in the sale ring this year by several million-dollar yearlings and 2-year-olds, as well as a $750,000 weanling in Book 1 of the Keeneland November Breeding Stock Sale. That weanling filly is a half sister to recent Breeders' Cup Juvenile Turf Sprint (G1T) winner Cy Fair out of Remarqued, herself a half sibling to Nyquist's two-time Royal Ascot winner Crimson Advocate. In foal to Nyquist, Remarqued sold at the Keeneland November sale for $1.2 million.
His 11 career grade 1 winners also include Breeders' Cup winners and Eclipse champion 2-year-old fillies Vequist and Immersive.
