Father's Day is not waiting for June this year in horse racing.

Kentucky Derby winner Mage won't run in the $6 million Breeders' Cup Classic.

Trainer Bob Baffert will look to add another Haskell Stakes and big payday to his collection when the lightly raced Arabian Knight takes on Kentucky Derby winner Mage and six others in the $1 million showcase event of the summer meet at Monmouth Park.

Mage's team at the Preakness has settled into a stable routine at the Preakness after the horse's Kentucky Derby victory capped off a tumultuous stretch at Churchill Downs.

Kentucky Derby winner Mage will run in the 148th Preakness following an encouraging workout at Churchill Downs, the horse’s connections said.

Kentucky Derby winner Mage remains on track to run in the Preakness next week to continue a pursuit of horse racing’s first Triple Crown.
