SARATOGA SPRINGS, N.Y. − The complexion of the Grade 1, $250,000 Test Stakes on Saturday at Saratoga changed dramatically Thursday afternoon, when Franny Freud, the morning-line favorite, was removed from the race because of an injury.
John Terranova, the trainer of Franny Freud, said she had suffered a ligament injury to her left front ankle and would be retired.
“We noticed some filling on the outside of her ankle,” Terranova said. “She never had anything wrong with her. But we decided there’s no sense risking her. She’s proven enough to everybody. She doesn’t need to prove any more. It’s a dangerous injury to come back from.”
Terranova said the injury was discovered via an ultrasound exam Thursday morning.
Terranova earlier this week compared Franny Freud to two-time champion Indian Blessing, who had great success in New York while stabled with the Terranovas. Her wins included the 2008 Test.
Franny Freud had won 8 of 11 starts, most recently the Prioress Stakes. Her defection makes the Test, a seven-furlong race for 3-year-old fillies, a more wide-open affair.
