Last year’s champion
juvenile Hansen has been ruled out of consideration for this Saturday’s
Grade 1, $1 million Travers at Saratoga Race Course.
“He had some inflammation in his left front leg this morning and
is not running,” said trainer Mike Maker.
Owned by Dr. Kendall Hansen and Skychai Racing, the grey son of Tapit
was undefeated as a 2-year-old including a win in the Breeders’ Cup
Juvenile. This year he has added two Grade 3 victories to his resume from six
starts.
