Omaha Beach to scratch from Pegasus owing to potential fracture in right-hind leg

Spun to run scratch

I won’t get 20-1 on Diamond oops

And a total guess as to how the rest will run without Lasix.

Should be a good investment race

If you own the breeding rights to Omaha Beach, I\'m not sure the scratch is a bad thing for you.  With the politics around Lasix being what they are, if Omaha Beach should happen to bleed without it, his value as a stallion has to drop.

A fracture? Hammering down on those bones. Long story deleted.

Once again, so soon after Mandella gave the thumbs up...
