Nicky Boy a "Gift to New York Racing"?

A dejected Chadda said on Wednesday that she would try to enter Nicky Boy in the $1-million Arkansas Derby (G1) on April 10 at Oaklawn Park as a final effort to qualify for the Kentucky Derby Presented by Yum! Brands (G1) on May 1 at Churchill Downs, but she is disappointed that she could not run the three-year-old Anziyan Royalty filly at Aqueduct as a gift to New York racing.

Nicky Boy began her career in the barn of Jeff Mullins, but Chadda said she transferred her filly to Arnulfo Ascencio because Mullins would not enter Nicky Boy in a stakes race and because she thought Mullins would have a hard time racing in New York. Mullins served a seven-day suspension last year for violating detention barn rules on Wood Memorial day.
“We started with Mullins, but he is a bad apple in the industry,” Chadda said. “Mullins did not want to come to New York, but New York opened its arms to us, and I want to reward them with the gift of Nicky [Boy].”
