Lexington Stakes winner Encino has been scratched from Saturday’s Kentucky Derby, according to a Churchill Downs spokesperson.
A reason for Encino’s scratch was not immediately available.
With Encino out of the race, Epic Ride will draw in from the also-eligible list and take the No. 20 spot in the starting gate.
