PHILADELPHIA (AP) - Rockport Harbor, a former top contender for the Kentucky Derby, is off the Triple Crown trail.
Owner Rick Porter decided not to run the injury-plagued 3-year-old colt in any Triple Crown races after a poor showing in the Lexington Stakes on Saturday, the final prep race for the Derby.
Rockport Harbor trainer John Servis and jockey Stewart Elliott, who helped lead Smarty Jones to wins in the Derby and Preakness Stakes last year, will now point the colt toward stakes races in the summer.
