If the stewards felt that a 4-day turnaround wasn't in the best interest of the horse/public, they have every right to scratch it. However, it was likely (I haven't confirmed it) cross-entered between races at PRX and PEN and they opted for PEN.
I'll post PPs when I get a chance. That or ask someone else to post them.
