Without a breakout horse and numerous outs, the Ocala Breeders’ Sales Company’s Spring Sale of 2-Year-Olds in Training dutifully marched through its paces Thursday, with a colt by Nyquist attracting the session’s highest price of $550,000 late in the day. Bloodstock agent Donato Lanni, bidding on behalf of Zedan Racing Stable, signed the ticket on the session topper for the third straight day.  The conditions and resulting slower times were unlikely to influence buyers, according to Lanni.  “I know it was a slow day,” he said. “The track was definitely a little bit slower and there was a headwind, but there were some nice horses that worked that day. Every day here is different. I think people kind of know and adjust and handicap every day when horses work. I think that’s something that comes into play and they know. Even though they went somewhat slower, I don’t think it means a whole lot.”
