Derby winner Rich Strike won’t run Preakness

Belmont Stakes runner-up Dr Post and Santa Anita Derby runner-up Authentic drew the two inside post positions and were made the top choices for Saturday’s $1 million Haskell Stakes at Monmouth Park. Seven colts were entered in the 1 1/8-mile race, which this year is no longer the first major race for 3-year-olds following the Triple Crown races. The coronavirus pandemic has altered the world’s sports schedule and the Kentucky Derby and Preakness have been pushed back to Sept. 5 and Oct. 3, respectively.
