Hurricane Ike (Graeme Hall) will not run in Saturday's GI Preakness S. after suffering an injury to his left hind leg. “My horse isn't so fine,” trainer John Sadler reported. “This is pretty fresh, but it looks similar to the problem he had at Oak Tree. He might have re-injured himself in the same area.” Winner of the GIII Derby Trial, Hurricane Ike had been expected to ship from Churchill to Pimlico Wednesday morning. “This is extremely disappointing,” Sadler admitted. “It's disappointing, but what can you do? Sometimes they don't cooperate. Hopefully, we'll get him into some big races later this year.”
