1996 Preakness Stakes - Full ABC Broadcast [01:03:46]
It was the day of sweet revenge in racing: Louis Quatorze won the 121st Preakness Stakes with Pat Day riding, just 10 days after he was replaced as a jockey by trainer D. Wayne Lukas, who watched today while his record streak ended after six straight Triple Crown victories. Day was signed for his ride by Nick Zito, the most vocal critic of Lukas and his hordes of horses. And they scored the coup of the year when Louis Quatorze, 16th in the Kentucky Derby and fifth in the Preakness betting, led every step of the way to outrun Skip Away by three and a quarter lengths. No Derby horse had ever finished so far back and returned two weeks later to win the Preakness. The closest that Lukas got to extending his streak was third place, with Editor's Note. The 8-5 favorite, Cavonnier, trained by Bob Baffert, finished fourth. Lukas, who entered five horses in the Derby and three in the Preakness, also finished fifth with Victory Speech and seventh with Prince of Thieves. Louis Quatorze even supplied some storybook numbers of his own. He ran the mile and three-sixteenths in 1:532/5 on a fast track, matching the record for the race set 12 years ago by Tank's Prospect, with Day in the saddle that day, too. In fact, this was the fifth time that Day had won the Preakness and the third in a row. The colt, a son of Sovereign Dancer, paid $19 for $2 to win and earned $458120 for his owners -- Bill Condren and Joe Cornacchia, who were the owners of other Zito stars like Strike the Gold and ...

I'll Have Another Scrapped: No Triple Crown for Belmont Stakes Favorite Due to Tendonitis [00:44]
Kentucky Derby champ I'll Have Another's owners were hoping to have another victory this weekend—but that won't happen. The thoroughbred has been scrapped from Saturday's Belmont Stakes, after trainer Doug O'Neill announced the horse was suffering from tendonitis. O'Neill said the horse may have overextended during training and injured one of his Achilles tendons. If the horse had won, he would have been the first Triple Crown winner in 34 years, and the 12th horse in the title's 137-year history. The 3-year-old colt cinched the Kentucky Derby and Baltimore's Preakness Stakes this May and was favored at Belmont. The Belmont Stakes features a grueling 1.5 mile track, nearly 20 percent longer than the Kentucky Derby, and a length not many 3-year-old horses have the stamina for. "I'm bummed we're not participating," said O'Neill, who along with owners and jockey Mario Gutierrez could have raked in large sums of cash with a Triple Crown. "Whoever wins will be a special horse."
