McNair Out Of French Race

Published: November 30, 2013 08:57 am EST

A disappointed and shocked Doug McNair informed Trot Insider on Saturday morning that he's unable to participate in Saturday's Prix des Rencontres Internationales du Trotteur Français at Hippodrome Paris-Vincennes.

McNair learned Saturday morning local time that his horse, Ramses de Vaudon, was scratched from the race and there is no also eligible.

"I can't believe there's no backup plan for a situation like this," a notably upset McNair told Trot Insider. He was graciously offered the drive from Swiss driver Jean Bernard Matthey but the racetrack officials wouldn't allow it.
