On May 16, 2009 Calvin Borel won the Preakness Stakes on Rachel Alexandra (after that horse was sold following the Derby). This accomplishment marked the first time that a jockey won the first two legs of the Triple Crown on different horses, and Borel could have become the first jockey since Steve Cauthen to win the Triple Crown in 1978 with a win in the Belmont. A win would have made him only the second individual to win the Triple Crown by sweeping the races in a year with different horses (D. Wayne Lukas, a trainer, in 1995). However, on June 6th, 2009, Calvin Borel finished 3rd on Mine That Bird in the Belmont Stakes, failing to accomplish a Jockey Triple Crown.
