The 2019 Preakness was the first since 1996 in which the winner of the Kentucky Derby did not run, and the first since 1951 in which none of the horses that finished "in the money" at the Derby competed. However, it was memorable for a very different reason- Bodexpress ran the entire course without his jockey.
Oops, just realized I got an extra "not" in there. It should read 'none of the horses that finished "in the money" at the Derby competed.' This it what comes of submitting a story just before bedtime.
