* Trainer Richard Mandella of favored Derby winner Omaha Beach informed Churchill Downs on Wednesday afternoon that the horse will be unable to race in the Derby because of entrapped epiglottis, "After training this morning we noticed him cough a few times," Mandella said in a news release. "It caused us to scope him and we found an entrapped epiglottis. We can't fix it this week so we'll have to have a procedure done in a few days and probably be out of training for three weeks. We'll have to figure out a whole new game plan."
