- Fulleffort has scratched from Kentucky Derby 152, trainer Brad Cox told The Courier Journal on Thursday morning.
Cox said Fulleffort will need a "minor surgery" after discovering a bone chip in his left hind leg.
With Fulleffort no longer being able to participate in the Kentucky Derby, a new trainer and horse have entered the lineup. Ocelli, trained by Whit Beckman, will be looking for his first career win in his seventh try.
Similarly, for the Kentucky Oaks race, the Brendan Walsh-trained Bella Ballerina was the latest defection, exiting the field Thursday morning.
