Champion Immersive Back in Brad Cox Barn, ‘Training & Moving Fantastic’

[Wandering Eyes]

Last year's unbeaten champion 2-year-old filly Immersive (Nyquist) is back in training with Brad Cox at Churchill Downs. It was announced earlier this year that the Godolphin homebred would be given some time off due to bone bruising.

“Immersive is back in the barn, training and moving fantastic,” Cox said. “Looking forward to getting her back later in the season.”

Immersive capped a four-for-four season with a dominating victory in the GI Breeders' Cup Juvenile Fillies at Del Mar Nov. 1. Her resume also includes wins in the GI Spinaway S. at Saratoga and GI Darley Alcibiades S. at Keeneland.

Cox also trains fellow unbeaten Godolphin homebred Good Cheer (Medaglia d'Oro), who further solidified her status as the horse to beat on the first Friday in May in the GI Kentucky Oaks with a win in the GII Fasig-Tipton Fair Grounds Oaks Mar. 22.

“She's definitely filled the gap–short term–for Immersive,” Cox said. “They're two great fillies.”
