Vikings' Asher Allen retires at age 24
BALTIMORE, May 16 (UPI) -- Kentucky Derby winner Super Saver and Preakness Stakes victor Lookin At Lucky won't be running in the Belmont Stakes, their trainers said Sunday.
Super Saver trainer Todd Pletcher and Lookin At Lucky's Bob Baffert told the Daily Racing Form their prize colts won't be in field during the June 5 race at Belmont Park, N.Y., the third jewel of racing's Triple Crown.
Lookin At Lucky won the Preakness Saturday after finishing sixth in the Derby. Derby champ Super Saver faded down the stretch Saturday and finished eighth at the Pimlico track.
The Belmont Stakes, a 1 1/2-mile event, will be without the two previous Triple Crown race winners for the second straight year.
