Another shocker in the world of horse racing as So You Think has been scratched from Saturday’s Eclipse Stakes because he is “lame”.

This is the second last minute scratch at a major horse racing in the past month. Early in June, I’ll Have Another was pulled from the Belmont Stakes just under 24 hours prior to the third leg of the Triple Crown. I’ll Have Another was looking to be the first horse to win the Triple Crown in the US in more than 35 years.

Trainer Aidan O’Brien’s wife, Anne-Marie, told her Twitter followers Thursday:

SO YOU Think is lame and will not run in the Coral-Eclipse at Sandown tomorrow.

Farhh has become the new favorite, coming in around 9/4 odds.

This race can be bet on at Sportsbook here where qualified customers receive up to US$350 in FREE CASH.
