Mystik Dan | Sarah Andrew

Mystik Dan (Goldencents) has resumed under-tack training at Ken McPeek's Magdalena Farm in Lexington as the GI Kentucky Derby winner attempts to get back in form after he was last seen running eighth in the GI Belmont Stakes, according to a press release on Friday from Churchill Downs.

Mystik Dan was training over the summer at Saratoga, but his conditioner opted to give the colt time following his Triple Crown campaign.

“He looks fantastic. There's a whole lot of hind quarter back on him,” McPeek said. “This is going to do him a lot of good.”

Ridden at Magdalena by retired jockey Robby Albarado, who partnered with the colt when he was a 2-year-old, Mystik Dan has no immediate target said McPeek.
