No Vanderbilt at Preakness as Foolish Pleasure seeks title
Red Smith notes Sagamore Farm has missed 22 straight Preakness entries since Native Dancer era while Alfred Vanderbilt shaped many greats through Bold Ruler and Discovery lineage. He links Foolish Pleasure and Singh to the farm, plus Ruffian’s rise, arguing the race would differ without Vanderbilt’s influence and Miss Disco’s legacy.
