i ll have another belmont :Bid Is Over During Dan Patrick Show
Despite heavy anticipation that horse racing would have its first Triple Crown winner since Affirmed in 1978,
I'll Have Another is not running the Belmont Stakes on Saturday.
During an interview on the "Dan Patrick Show" on Friday, trainer Doug O'Neill broke the news.
The three-year-old colt owned by Reddam Racing and trained by O'Neill notched thrilling wins at the Kentucky Derby and Preakness Stakes and was the early favorite at the Belmont Stakes.
The surprise scratch is the result of an injury, with O'Neill telling the Dan Patrick Show that the horse "has the start of some tendonitis in the left front leg.”
O'Neill went on to reveal that he doesn't expect the horse to race again.
"The horse is sound and happy, but it's not worth it," O'Neill would later tell The Associated Press.
The New York Racing Association quickly scheduled a press conference for 1 p.m. on Friday. During the press conference held at Belmont Park, it was announced that I'll Have Another is retired from racing.
