Sweetnorthernsaint to skip Belmont

Sweetnorthernsaint, who was the beaten favorite in the Kentucky Derby and runner-up in the Preakness Stakes, will skip the final leg of the Triple Crown, the June 10 Belmont Stakes, his trainer, Mike Trombetta, said Wednesday.
"We don't want to overdo it," Trombetta said. "Now seems like the right time to take half a step back."

Trombetta said Sweetnorthernsaint would be pointed to the Haskell Invitational or West Virginia Derby in August, with a prep in July
