oxbow ( foaled march 26 , 2010 ) , an american thoroughbred racehorse , is best known for winning the second jewel in the united states triple crown of thoroughbred racing , the 2013 preakness stakes .

a bay colt , sired by a winner of the breeders ' cup classic and out of a full sister to another breeders ' cup classic winner , oxbow was sold as a yearling at keeneland for $ 250,000 and is owned by brad kelley of calumet farm .

he was trained by d. wayne lukas and was ridden in his triple crown races by gary stevens .

oxbow had a reputation as a front-runner who was difficult to rate during his races .

plagued with frequent turnover in jockeys prior to the triple crown series , and often running from poor starting gate post positions , he had only two wins prior to his victory in the preakness .

that success was calumet farm 's first win in a triple crown race in 45 years and breeder richard santulli 's first win in a triple crown classic race .

it also was stevens ' first triple crown win since 2001 , following his return to riding in early 2013 after a seven-year retirement , and lukas ' first triple crown win since 2000 .

oxbow 's second-place finish in the belmont stakes in june made him the third horse that year to reach $ 1 million in purse wins .

following the belmont , he was ranked the top three-year-old racehorse in the united states by the national thoroughbred racing association ( ntra ) .

he was pulled up shortly after finishing fourth in the haskell invitational , and was found to have suffered a soft tissue injury , was taken out of competition for the remainder of his three-year-old season , and retired in october 2013 .

he stands at stud for the 2015 breeding season at calumet farms .

going into the preakness stakes , oxbow had finished higher than fourth only once in his previous four races . six different horses in this 14 - horse field finished ahead of him in those four races , so he hasn ' t exactly dominated his competitors in previous races .
the decision to take oxbow out of his comfort zone was premeditated . oxbow , by virtue of his strong performances in some early season races , virtually was guaranteed a spot in the kentucky derby field no matter the outcome of the arkansas derby . so stevens decided to experiment , and see if he could win from off the pace — a luxury only a jockey like stevens could risk . but oxbow fought stevens’ game plan . he lost , but he learned something about the horse , something he hopes to take to churchill downs .
the horse , ridden by veteran gary stevens , dashed the triple crown hopes of orb , which finished fourth at pimlico race course in baltimore .

saratoga springs , n . y . – preakness winner oxbow will not run again this year , and trainer d . wayne lukas said monday he wouldn’t be surprised if the horse never raced again , though that is a decision to be made by owner brad kelley of calumet farm .
oxbow ( $ 32 . 80 ) , sixth in the kentucky derby two weeks ago , benefited from a race shape that was vastly different from the derby , in which oxbow was close to a hot pace and held on best of those nearest that pace . in the preakness , oxbow was surprisingly left alone on the lead while setting moderate fractions , and had plenty left to lead from start to finish .
this horse has only been able to enter the preakness due to the sheer number of actual contenders that dropped out of contention following the kentucky derby .

galloping out after the haskell , jockey gary stevens didn’t like what he felt underneath him and jumped off the horse rather than jog him back to be unsaddled .
now the winningest trainer in the history of the triple crown — preakness was his 14th — he had touted kentucky derby winner orb as the horse to beat .
eddie plesa , who trains itsmyluckyday , said his colt ran his race but
simply got beat by a horse that was trained perfectly by wayne lukas .
starting the race on the rail , jockey joel rosario didn ' t want to get banged up and waited for the group to break up out of the starting game to push his horse . by the time orb was able to get away from the rail , oxbow had already built up a big lead .
govenor charlie is so lightly raced at this point there is no telling how good he is . he has two wins from three starts . the best horse he has faced so far is a horse named let em shine who defeated him in his debut . that colt is turning out to be a serious sprinter to watch .
and oxbow becomes the first wire - to - wire winner at the # preakness in 31 years ! # orb disappointingly finishes out of the money .

i like your thought process . . . and leaning toward it . oxbow made me a nice penny . however , steven & oxbow wants to shut - up the nay - sayers . what ' s the best place to do it . . . ny ( my hometown ) . lol ! !
and a better figure earned by a horse who , strictly by looks , appeared not to have run as strong a race as orb had run in the derby .

frac daddy and freedom child set out for the lead from their inside posts , with oxbow not far behind . as the field came out of the turn , oxbow had the lead heading into the long backstretch run . but unlike the preakness , he had company up front and the pace was a bit quicker . by the time oxbow reached the far turn , palace malice loomed and orb was beginning to make a run from way back in the pack .
heading into the belmont stakes , oxbow is a seasoned 3 - year - old but a newcomer to the broad expanses of the belmont main track . in contrast , orb , this year’s kentucky derby winner and a likely belmont runner , calls belmont his home turf . these are the details that make horse racing fascinating .
uncaptured was canadian thoroughbred racing ' s top horse of 2012 and the country ' s champion two - year - old male after winning six of seven starts , including five stakes races . uncaptured has been second in three of his four events this year but was a horse many thought would be a legitimate kentucky derby contender in 2013 .
“i was trying to be politically correct all week , but i thought ( oxbow ) was the toughest horse . i thought if there was some adversity or something went wrong , he had the best chance to overcome , ” lukas said . “will take charge is so big that he has to get a clear run . he can’t check , stop , take a bump or anything . the other horse ( titletown five ) we knew was going to need a career quantum leap forward . ”
“it’s been a while , but it never gets old , ” said lukas , who said stevens gave oxbow “a hall - of - fame ride . ”
by 11 1 / 2 lengths . following a sixth in the kentucky derby presented by yum ! brands ( gr . i ) , oxbow beat derby winner
of more importance is that a former channel may indicate the river ' s course has changed - which would produce the oxbow lake your father spoke of .

this horse has hit the board in every race he’s participated in , including first - place finishes at the sunland derby and a maiden special weight race at santa anita .
revolutionary has the best chance to challenge orb for the top spot . the horse finished third at the kentucky derby but didn ' t take part in the preakness stakes .
there , montanan ' s shared a common favorite to win . it wasn ' t a horse . garry was the resounding name echoing off the walls of the casino .
orb ' s failure to even place at the preakness leads to doubts about how the horse will fare on an even longer track than he won on at the derby .
this spring’s triple crown season is now in the books , but there are plenty of good reasons to keep horse racing on your radar for the remainder of the year .
returning off a three - week break , oxbow delivered an improved effort to lead throughout in a seven - furlong main track allowance race under the twin spires , scoring by four lengths . shipped west for the cashcall futurity ( gr . i ) , oxbow turned in a respectable stakes debut , checking in fourth behind

2015 winner : american pharoah it’s on again in 2015… american pharoah with an impressive showing became the 35th horse to win both the kentucky derby and preakness stakes . on a muddy track in a heavy rain in baltimore , jockey victor espinoza powered his horse to the early lead and was never contested as american pharoah was too strong down the stretch .
even after saturday ' s triple crown triumph , lukas reported that he had not heard from oxbow ' s owner , nor had that changed early sunday morning .
palace malice outdueled preakness winner oxbow down the stretch and went on to win the 145th running of the belmont stakes in an upset on saturday at belmont park .
oxbow , with jockey gary stevens in the irons , wins the 138th running of the preakness stakes at pimlico race course in baltimore on saturday , may 18 .
he recognized it by the oxbow bend of the banks and the giant makuyu trees on the opposite side , with a fish eagle nest in the upper branches .
awesome patriot , a stakes - winning full - brother to preakness stakes winner oxbow , will begin stud duty in 2014 at spendthrift farm in lexington , ky .
installed as the second choice on the morning - line at 2 - 1 in the seven - horse field for sunday ' s grade 1 $ 1 , 000 , 000 william hill haskell is d . wayne lukas ' s preakness winner , oxbow . the recently un - retired jockey gary stevens and oxbow took the preakness in wire - to - wire fashion and had the lead in the belmont until overtaken by palace malice midway through the race . although he won’t have to worry about palace malice , who will be running in the jim dandy a day earlier , oxbow will likely find his greatest challenge in fellow kentucky derby contenders golden soul and verrazano .
2013 winner : palace malice palace malice ridden by jockey mike smith beat out oxbow ( 2nd ) and orb ( 3rd ) to win the 145th belmont stakes . 85 year old owner cot campbell watched as his horse passed the preakness winner and held off the kentucky derby winner’s late charge to win the third leg of the triple crown .
gone west had tremendous speed and medaglia d ' oro had staying power and stamina , that ' s why violence makes interesting ! so mr . bob baffert horse den legacy ?
oxbow’s preakness resulted in the slowest winning time since 1961 . seemed on the surface like a very weak race . so how did oxbow earn a beyer speed figure of 106 , better than orb’s highly praised kentucky derby ( 104 beyer figure ) and the third highest figure for a triple crown race in the last five years ?
absent is the possibility of an individual triple crown winner although kentucky derby champion orb and preakness winner oxbow will vie for bragging rights in a rubber match of sorts . twelve other horses are expected to be in the field , though , and several of them should give both orb and oxbow a serious run for their money .
stevens was just happy to draft palace malice , finish second . considering the long haul that is the triple crown , stevens declared afterward that he had the best horse of the spring . oxbow finished sixth in the derby , first in the preakness , second in belmont . not bad . just not a big headline in the daily news .
it surely isn ' t palace malice , the winner of the belmont , who is more party pooper than anything else . you can ' t win the triple crown or horse of the year by entering two races . this was only the colt ' s second victory in eight starts . by comparison , oxbow was making his 12th start .
oxbow’s preakness triumph gave hall of fame jockey gary stevens the biggest win of his comeback from retirement , and it served as one of racing’s signature moments of 2013 .
oxbow finished 1 3 / 4 lengths in front of itsmyluckyday , who was a half - length better than mylute , with orb , the derby winner , a distant fourth , nine lengths behind oxbow . goldencents was fifth and was followed , in order , by departing , will take charge , govenor charlie , and titletown five .
stevens , who walked back toward the finish line after the race , said oxbow was
fine , he’s walking sound enough . but he wasn’t jogging sound .
all around shimmered the volumes and volumes of stars , including the double oxbow - - part of the encompassing galaxy , analogous to the milky way seen from earth .
the belmont stakes 2013 will be the final leg of the triple crown , so orb and oxbow will battle other horses as they try to take home another victory .
oxbow ! made my weekend and made up for my ky derby loss . wish i had to exacta and trifecta . i thought orb would finish in the money .
the final leg of the triple crown will get underway at belmont park on saturday , and oxbow and other horses will have disappointing showings in the belmont stakes 2013 .
i ' m doubtful any horse can pull off the triple crown anymore , to overcome the freshness of some of these horses ,
gary stevens said after the veteran jockey dismounted from second - place oxbow .
the belmont carries its own prestige now ; the prize money is so big that a lot of horses skip the preakness .
awesome again . . . is better
semental

however , the two have had their problems . in the 1991 nassau county handicap at belmont park , stevens rode a horse for lukas called farma way . stevens was unable to harness the horse’s speed out of the gate , and he got locked in a speed duel with a rival . the fast early pace proved to be his undoing . he finished third .
still waiting for the phone call , stevens returns from the garage . mentally , it is already time to prepare for the race . all he needs is a horse to ride .
with orb ' s fourth - place finish saturday , only one horse has won the preakness from the one - hole since 1961 — the lukas - trained tabasco cat in 1994 .
grade 2 winner birdrun has been retired from racing and will begin his stallion career at poplar creek horse farm in bethel , ohio for an advertised fee of $ 2 , 000 .
in the ninth race , the grade 2 monmouth cup , stevens alertly pulled up pace - setting take charge indy and then four races later , in the $ 1 million grade 1 haskell , stevens crossed the finish line fourth on second - choice oxbow but 100 yards after the finish line , jumped off the horse and immediately took off the saddle .
since beginning his comeback , he hasn’t found that bond in the top races . in the dubai world cup , his mount racked his shoulder into the starting gate and finished in 11th place . there was a disappointing sixth place at santa anita ; and oxbow — the horse he will ride saturday — was out of the money at the arkansas derby .
at 20 - 1 , there may not be a more favorable horse to bet on at belmont . the no . 10 post is nothing to worry about in a 14 - horse field , and he’s shown the ability to surprise on longer tracks . don’t break the bank on will take charge , but don’t be afraid to give him a little action on saturday .

the wingspan is 9.5 – 14.5 mm ( 0.37 – 0.57 in ) .

the forewings are white , irrorated ( speckled ) with gray .

females are usually more white than males .

the hindwings are uniformly gray .

the species is highly variable in wing pattern .

the larvae feed on yabea microcarpa .

young larvae feed on the developing seeds of their host plant .

justification : dipterygonotus balteatus ranges from the western indian ocean to the west pacific to at least 90 m depth . juveniles occur over coral reefs while adults are pelagic over the continental shelf . this species is heavily exploited and is commonly taken as bycatch ; however , it remains locally abundant in parts of its range and occurs in marine protected areas within its range . therefore , d . balteatus is listed as least concern .
dipterygonotus balteatus is a wide - ranging species in the indo - pacific . it is found from the gulf of aden to south africa , east to the solomon islands , south to australia and north to southern japan ( carpenter 1987 , 1988 ; reader and leis 1996 ; yoshino et al . 1999 ; kizhakudan et al . 2008 ) . it has also been reported from new caledonia ( fricke et al . 2011 ) . the depth range for this species is 37 to 91 m ( weitkamp and sullivan 2003 ) .

an unusually large number of individuals of this species were landed along the tamil nadu coast during july and september 1996 ( kizhakudan et al . 2008 ) . dipterygonotus balteatus is heavily exploited in the philippines but remains locally abundant in some areas ( k . carpenter pers . comm . 2015 ) .
dipterygonotus balteatus juveniles are most often found in reef habitats with other juvenile caesionid juveniles ( carpenter 2001 ) , while adults are the only caesionid that is primarily pelagic over the continental shelf ( sommer et al . 1996 , carpenter 2001 ) relatively far away from open reefs ( kuiter and tonozuka 2001 ) . the maximum recorded size for this species is 14 cm tl ( carpenter 1988 ) .
dipterygonotus balteatus is heavily exploited in southeast asia and can contribute significantly to small pelagic catches ( k . carpenter pers . comm . 2015 ) . it is occasionally used as bait ( carpenter 1988 ) , including in tuna fisheries . it is caught at night using lights and dip nets and is occasionally marketed fresh along with sardines and anchovies in the philippines ( carpenter 2001 ) .
dipterygonotus balteatus is commonly taken as bycatch from trawling ( vidthayanon 1998 ) and is heavily exploited in parts of its range .
there are no species - specific conservation efforts in place for d . balteatus , however ; the range for this species overlaps with marine protected areas ( iucn and unep 2014 ) such as the great barrier reef marine park and the hon mun , khanh hoa province mpa in viet nam .
