BALTIMORE (AP):
Kentucky Derby runner-up Nehro will not run in tomorrow's Preakness.
Nehro has endured a busy schedule this spring, and owner Ahmed Zayat says he doesn't want to risk running the horse in tomorrow's second leg of the Triple Crown.
Zayat made the decision Tuesday morning, even though Nehro has responded well after finishing second behind Animal Kingdom at Churchill Downs on May 7.
