What does " Not eating up " mean ?

Sorry for sounding ignorant but I never took notice of this before.

If a horse does not feel well, it will not eat up all its food. As a precaution the trainer will scratch the horse incase it is sick or harbouring a virus.

As a matter of interest, will the Horse now have a period of time before he can run again? Or does he just need a Vet certificate to say all is well? Or can he just turn up and race whenever?

Cheers, Jim.
