War of Will, the horse that Maximum Security interfered with at the Kentucky Derby, finished first at the Preakness Stakes on Saturday at Pimlico Race Course in Baltimore.

The designated winner, Country House, did not run in the Preakness because of health reasons. That meant no contender for the Triple Crown.
