Sovereignty Captures 2025 Kentucky Derby
Sovereignty triumphed in a rain-soaked 2025 Kentucky Derby at Churchill Downs, overcoming tough conditions and a competitive field.
The 2025 Preakness Stakes, the second race of the Triple Crown, is set for Saturday, May 17. It is any horse's race after the early favorite, Sovereignty, dropped out of contention ahead of this middle jewel.
The Kentucky Derby winner trained by Bill Mott, Sovereignty, will not compete in the Preakness Stakes, disappointing hopes for a Triple Crown winner for the seventh consecutive year. The Triple Crown, consisting of the Kentucky Derby, the Preakness Stakes, and the Belmont Stakes, is one of the most coveted titles in horse racing. Sovereignty's victory over the favorite Journalism at Churchill Downs, with a time of 2:02.31, was a surprise. His withdrawal from the Preakness Stakes was an even bigger shock.
Though no reason was given for Sovereignty's withdrawal from the race, Mott has indicated that he plans on having him race in the Belmont Stakes, the last race of the Triple Crown that will take place on June 9 in Saratoga.
OPINION: As Sovereignty skips Preakness, time for horse racing to realize Triple Crown must change
