(AP) — There will be no Triple Crown winner in thoroughbred racing this year. Rich Strike will not run in the Preakness as owner Rich Dawson and trainer Eric Reed stick to their initial plan to rest the colt for five weeks. Rich Strike went off at 80-1 in winning the Kentucky Derby last weekend. The plan now is to have Rich Strike ready to run in the Belmont Stakes on June 11.
