Diego Velazquez (Ire) (Frankel {GB}) will be a non-runner for Saturday's FanDuel Breeders' Cup Mile having been scratched by Aidan O'Brien on Friday morning.
”We just weren't 100 per cent happy with him this morning on the track so we decided to take him out ourselves,” said the trainer.
The three-year-old colt is the second withdrawal from the Grade I contest in the last 24 hours after the French-trained Ramatuelle (Justify) was scratched by the vets on Thursday afternoon.
O'Brien also had Ylang Ylang (GB) (Frankel {GB}) withdrawn from the Filly & Mare Turf earlier in the week after the filly spiked a temperature and was off her food.
