I'll Have Another walks in the barn with groom Benjamin Perez after a morning workout at Belmont Park, Friday, June 8, 2012 in Elmont, N.Y. The Triple Crown hopeful runs Saturday in the Belmont Stakes. I"ll Have Another, hours from his historic bid for the Triple Crown in Saturday's Belmont Stakes, was scratched from the race Friday with tendonitis and retired. Originally favored at 4-5 on the morning-line for the 144th "Test of the Champion," I'll Have Another will be the 12th horse since Affirmed in 1978 to win the first two jewels of the Triple Crown and not complete the sweep in the Belmont.
