Don't know what Equibase labels "a trainer scratch", but according to DRF the NYRA veterinarian stated that five of the horses were scratched by NYRA's veterinary team. And I'd guess that in a few of the other "trainer scratches", the trainer was given some encouragement.
NYRA's got a PR disaster on their hands, and they're going to be all over this...at least for a few weeks until the heat cools off.
