Description:
Aktabantay has been scratched out of the Oct. 31 Breeders' Cup Juvenile Turf (gr. IT) because of a stress fracture in his right rear leg caused by kicking his stall, according to Breeders' Cup officials.
A 2-year-old British-bred son of Oasis Dream, Aktabantay is trained by H. Palmer for owner V. I. Araci. He was listed at 12-1 on the morning line and would have been ridden by Olivier Peslier from the 9 post in the one-mile grass test.
From six starts, the colt has won a maiden and the European Wealth Solario Stakes (Eng-III) and finished second in the Superlative Stakes (Eng-II).
