Communique will not run in the $2-million Emirates Airline Breeders’ Cup Filly and Mare Turf (gr. IT) at Santa Anita Oct. 24 due to a foot abscess in her right front leg.

George “Rusty” Arnold, Communique’s trainer, told Breeders’ Cup officials he detected a pulse in the foot the morning of Oct. 20. The trainer said the injury was not serious and that Comminque would race again.
