Contender Status

Behindatthebar was entered in the Preakness Stakes (G1) and had drawn post five but the day before the race the colt came down with a bruised left front foot, prompting trainer Todd Pletcher to scratch him from the race.

The injury was not considered serious, but will leave Behindatthebar without a prep race for the Belmont Stakes (G1), having last raced on April 19 when he won the Coolmore Lexington Stakes (G2) at Keeneland Race Course.
