Gosger may not have the most appealing name of the horses he will share Saturday's course with, but he could be the surprise of the race. The product of sire Nyquist and dam Gloria S (by way of Tapit), the colt has found success early in 2025.

There will be no Triple Crown winner in horse racing this year. Sovereignty, the three-year-old thoroughbred who won the Kentucky Derby on Saturday, will not race in the Preakness Stakes – the second leg of the three races that make up the Triple Crown.

The Kentucky Derby betting favorite on May 3 is the morning-line favorite for the Preakness Stakes on Saturday. But the colt that won the Kentucky Derby isn’t at the Preakness Stakes.

Just a few days after winning the Kentucky Derby, Sovereignty was ruled out of running in the Preakness Stakes.

Competing for your sport's highest achievement shouldn't be a question, but for horse racing's Triple Crown, it's not that simple.

Sovereignty will not run May 17 at Pimlico Race Course, becoming the fourth Derby winner in the past seven Triple Crown seasons to miss the Preakness.

Mott is a Preakness victory away from taking the career Triple Crown, but the 71-year-old trainer won't have a chance to win it with Sovereignty, opting instead to hold the colt out until the Belmont Stakes.

We extend our congratulations to the connections of Sovereignty and respect their decision,” Rogers said in a statement. The sport has not had a Triple Crown winner since Jus

This is the fourth time since Justify won all three races in 2018 that the Preakness will go on without a true shot at a Triple Crown.

Kentucky Derby winner, Sovereignty, will not participate in the Preakness Stakes, the second leg of the Triple Crown.
