Nysos, Eagles Flight Back on Santa Anita Worktab

Nysos | Benoit

Unbeaten 3-year-old 'TDN Rising Star' Nysos (Nyquist), sidelined since winning the GIII Robert B. Lewis Stakes in February at Santa Anita, and the royally bred 2-year-old 'TDN Rising Star' Eagles Flight (Curlin), each returned to the worktab Thursday at Santa Anita. Also working towards a comeback in Arcadia was last year's GI Del Mar Debutante Stakes winner 'TDN Rising Star' Tamara (Bolt d'Oro).

Nysos, trained by Bob Baffert, worked four furlongs with company in :47.60 (6/23).

“He went nice,” Baffert told Daily Racing Form. “I was happy with him.”

Eagles Flight, a half-brother to 2022 Horse of the Year Flightline (Tapit) and a head-turning debut winner at Santa Anita in late May, was clocked going a quarter mile in :23.20 (1/2) for trainer John Sadler.

Tamara, off since a seventh-place finish as the favorite in last year's GI Breeders' Cup Juvenile Fillies, worked four furlongs for Richard Mandella in :48.20 (9/23). The daughter of Hall of Famer Beholder also breezed four furlongs Oct. 4. She emerged from the Juvenile Fillies with a small fracture in her left hind splint bone, which did not require surgery.
