Sovereignty, the winner of the 2025 Kentucky Derby, will not race in the Preakness Stakes in Baltimore next week, meaning there will not be a Triple Crown winner for the seventh year in a row.

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.

Horse racing will not have a Triple Crown winner this year. Sovereignty, who won the Kentucky Derby on Saturday, is skipping the Preakness Stakes on May 17 at Pimlico Race Course and will instead prepare for the Belmont Stakes in early June.
