Country House,who won the Kentucky Derby after original winner Maximum Security was disqualified, won’t be taking part in the Preakness Stakes, his owner said.
Mott was circumspect on Sunday morning about running Country House in the Preakness, even though it’s almost an automatic that the Kentucky Derby winner move on to the Pimlico race.
“It’s probably a little viral thing,” Mott told Privman on Tuesday. “Hopefully it doesn’t develop into anything serious. Usually when something like this happens a horse misses a couple weeks of training. He’s not seriously sick right now. But, he’s showing indications that something is going on.”
