Trainer D. Wayne Lukas says Dublin will not be entered in the Belmont Stakes, eliminating the chance of any horse running in all three Triple Crown races this year.
Dublin finished seventh in the Kentucky Derby behind Super Saver and fifth in the Preakness behind Lookin At Lucky.
The trainers of Super Saver and Lookin At Lucky have already said their colts are bypassing the Belmont on June 5. The other Derby-Preakness runners Jackson Bend and Paddy O’Prado are not being considered, either.
It will be the first time since 2006 that no horse competes in all three classics and that neither the Derby nor Preakness winner runs in the Belmont.
Top Belmont contenders include Derby runner-up Ice Box and Preakness runner-up First Dude.
