...colt galloped into the nation's hearts in May, with a stunning, six-and-a-half-length win in the Kentucky Derby that had the racing experts shouting Triple Crown. But two weeks later, his race toward the sports pantheon was abruptly halted, when he shattered his right hind leg at the start of the Preakness, inspiring a nationwide vigil.
