Many think the traditional five-week Triple Crown rotation of Kentucky Derby, Preakness and Belmont needs a shake up as modern horse trainers do not like to race horses three times in five weeks.

According to WBAL-TV's Greg Ng, 1/ST Executive Vice President Mike Rogers said Tuesday that he was informed by trainer Bill Mott that Sovereignty will not run in the upcoming Preakness Stakes. Last weekend, Sovereignty beat out Journalism to win the 151st running of the Kentucky Derby at Churchill Downs in Louisville, Kentucky.

Horse racing will not have a Triple Crown winner this year. Sovereignty, who won the Kentucky Derby on Saturday, is skipping the Preakness Stakes on May 17 at Pimlico Race Course and will instead prepare for the Belmont Stakes in early June.
