War Pass因傷已退出肯塔基打比
War Pass, last year's champion 2-year-old colt, was declared out of the Kentucky Derby on Saturday by trainer Nick Zito, who said War Pass had developed a minor leg fracture.:hhh: :ooo:
War Pass most recently finished second in the Wood Memorial at Aqueduct. In recent days, Zito had said the Wood was a "tough" race on War Pass, who had not had a workout since the Wood. The colt is expected to be out until the fall.
War Pass was attempting to emulate Street Sense, who last year became the first horse to win the Derby after capturing the Breeders' Cup Juvenile the previous year. War Pass was atop the Derby's graded stakes earnings list with $1.47 million, so everyone on the list now moves up a spot.
