Kentucky Derby winner Golden Tempo will skip the 2026 Preakness Stakes, becoming the third healthy Derby winner in five years to bypass the race. Trainer Cherie DeVaux — the first woman to train a Derby winner — cited the colt's long-term health, as his prior race spacing of 25-42 days makes the 14-day Derby-to-Preakness turnaround untenable. The decision accelerates a growing crisis for the Triple Crown format, with Preakness viewership declining to near-record lows and reform proposals gaining momentum ahead of 2027 television rights negotiations.
