Kentucky Derby winner Sovereignty won't run in the Preakness Stakes. That means there won't be a Triple Crown winner for a seventh consecutive year.

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.

Junior Alvarado, the jockey who rode Sovereignty to victory at the 2025 Kentucky Derby, was fined $62,000 on Friday after the Horse Integrity and Safety Authority ruled he had whipped his horse too many times.
