Brave Monarch To Scratch

Graham just spoke with the racing secretary at Belmont and there have yet to be any scratches from today`s race. We don't want to ship up there on a whim and then end up not being able to run, so will scratch out of the race. It is frustrating that this horse hasn't drawn into the last two races entered, but we feel confident that he will be in the starting gate soon. The backup target is the 25k maiden claimer going 1 1/8 miles on the turf on Friday, June 17th at Monmouth. Entries are taken on Sunday
