Withdrawn from race (9)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

scratched

(Other definitions for scratched that I've seen before include "marked" , "Scraped, scored" , "Having surface damage" , "Pulled out of contest" , "Used one's nails and withdrew from the competition" .)

I've seen this clue in the Sydney Morning Herald.
