When it comes to horse racing, Horses Wild has got you covered.
With Recapturetheglory’s defection, it appears none of the 19 Kentucky Derby horses who lost to Big Brown will compete in the Preakness next Saturday. The last time that occurred was 60 years ago with Citation.
“The racehorse comes first,” said co-owner Lamarque, who teamed up with co-owner and trainer Louie Roussel to win the Preakness 20 years ago with Risen Star. “He had a slight temperature plus a slight pulse in his right front toe. For betterment of racing we are electing to give this horse some time and let him regroup. We are sorry we will not be coming to Baltimore but I know it is going to be a great race. We are really going to miss the Preakness experience. We felt we had a live chance to turn the tables on Big Brown.”
Recapturetheglory won the Illinois Derby and started the Kentucky Derby from the number 18 post.
