Brisbane three-year-old Doss has been scratched from the Magic Millions Guineas after being found to be lame.
Doss was originally second emergency but was elevated to next in line for Saturday’s $2 million race after the earlier scratching of Sydney gelding Ljungberg.
Stewards inspected all horses who were accepted for the Guineas and 2YO Classic on Thursday and found the Barry Lockwood-trained Doss was sore in the near fore leg.
Connections have elected to scratch him rather than wait to see if it improves.
It means the Liam Birchley-trained Say I See You is next in line to gain a start.
