Trainer on Omaha Beach scratch: “It’s devastating”

LOUISVILLE, Ky (WTVQ) – In 2009, “I Want Revenge” was the morning line favorite for the Kentucky Derby.
A weak ankle led to the horse being scratched from the Derby.
Ten years later, another favorite has been scratched.
Omaha Beach is suffering from an entrapped epiglottis and will not run in the Derby.
For his trainer, Richard Mandella, it means he will not be able to chase after that elusive derby victory.
Check out the video for what Mandella had to say after he found out his horse would not be participating in the derby.
