Mucho Macho Man latest Woodward withdrawal
Mucho Macho Man, most recently third in the Whitney Handicap, has been
scratched from Saturday's Grade 1 Woodward at Saratoga.
The five-year-old, the 9-2 fourth choice on the morning line for the
Woodward, has run three times this year, also finishing third in the Criminal
Type overnight stakes on June 14 at Belmont Park and being pulled up in the
Sunshine Millions Classic in January over a sloppy track at Gulfstream Park.
"It's a huge disappointment," said owner Patti Reeves of the decision. "We
just don't want to risk running him on an off track."
Reeves said Mucho Macho Man could make his next start in the Jockey Club Gold
Cup on September 28 at Belmont Park.
Earlier this week, after entries were drawn, multiple Grade 1 star Fort
Larned was scratched from the Woodward.
