Caulfield Guineas runner-up Lizard Island has been sidelined for at least six months with a tendon injury.
The colt was scheduled to run in Saturday's Australian Guineas at Flemington.
Trainer Pat Hyland, who rates Lizard Island the best horse he has trained, says he is confident the colt will return to racing after a period of paddock rest.
