Tillie's Lily scratched from Caress Stakes due to illness

There will be probably be more scratches, depending on which surface it is ultimately run, but today's $200,000 Caress Stakes lost a major player in Tillie's Lily -- a horse I particularly liked _ due to an illness.

Trainer Jonathan Thomas, via text, said Tillie's Lily had a virus and will miss a few days.

Faypien will run if the race comes off the turf. Otherwise, she will scratch and run in Wednesday's G2 Honorable Miss.

Trainer Wesley Ward was still considering running in today's Caress if it comes off the turf.
