Napoleon Solo took home the 2026 Preakness Stakes on Saturday, the 151st running of the race.

The favorite in Taj Mahal, the 1 horse, was in the lead from the start until the final turn until Napoleon Solo made his move on the outside and took the lead at the top of the stretch. As Taj Mahal fell off, Iron Honor, the 9 horse, snuck up, but the effort ultimately was not enough. 

Napoleon Solo opened at 8-1 and closed at 7-1. Iron Honor, at 8-1, finished second, with Chip Honcho fishing third after closing at 11-1. Ocelli, one of just three horses to run both the Kentucky Derby two weeks ago and Saturday’s Preakness, finished fourth at 8-1.

A $1 exacta paid out $53.60, while a $1 trifecta brought in $597.10. But someone out there is very lucky, as a $1 superhighfive – picking the top-five finishers in order – paid out $12,015.70.

Even moreso, a 20-cent Pick 6 – picking the winners of the six consecutive races, with the final being the Preakness, paid out $33,842.34.

The race was run without the Kentucky Derby winner for the second year in a row. After Sovereignty did not run the Preakness last year – and wound up winning the Belmont Stakes – the training team of Golden Tempo opted to skip the Maryland race.

From 1960 to 2018, only three Derby winners did not run in the Preakness. Three Derby winners have skipped the Preakness in the last five years, and for the sixth time in eight years, for various reasons, the Triple Crown had already been impossible to accomplish by the time the Preakness even rolled around.

“I understand that fans of the sport or fans of the Triple Crown are disappointed, but the horse is not a machine,” Golden Tempo’s trainer, Cherie DeVaux, told Fox News Digital earlier this week.

Only three horses from two weeks ago – Ocelli, Robusta, and Incredibolt, were back at the Preakness. Corona de Oro, the 11 horse on Saturday, was scratched well ahead of the Derby, and Great White, who reared up and fell on his back after becoming startled shortly before entering the Derby gate, took the 13 post on Saturday.

The Preakness went off roughly 24 hours after a horse died following the completion of his very first race.

Hit Zero, trained by Brittany Russell, came into the race as the favorite. However, he finished last in the race, which was won by another one of Russell’s horses, Bold Fact — and upon crossing the finish line, Hit Zero reportedly began coughing, dropped to his knees, then put his head down and died.

The Preakness took place at Laurel Park as Pimlico undergoes renovations. It was the first time ever that Pimlico did not host the race, moving roughly 20 miles south.

The Belmont Stakes, the final Triple Crown race, will take place on June 6. The race will return to Saratoga for a third year in a row as Belmont Park continues to be renovated.

A popular Minute Maid citrus drink that vanished from store shelves decades ago still lives on in the memories of kids who grew up drinking it in the 1980s.

Coca-Cola, Minute Maid’s parent company, quietly discontinued Five Alive around 1995. 

But nostalgic social-media posts keep wondering why.

OLD-SCHOOL SODA WENT FROM BEING A TOP BRAND TO NEARLY UNFINDABLE

“When did Five Alive fall off?” a person on Reddit wondered about a year ago.

Another post from the same time showing an ad for Five Alive from 1979, the year it launched, drew sentimental reactions.

“Honestly, I loved that stuff,” wrote one commenter. 

“Why did it go away?” asked another.

“I miss this stuff so much,” someone else wrote.

“I could go for some Five Alive right now,” wrote a Redditor three years ago. 

“Does anyone remember Five Alive?” asked another around the same time.

Both posts drew enthusiastic reactions from like-minded readers.

Some people even have fond memories of the less-expensive frozen concentrate version of the drink.

“Remember how it would slide slowly out of the can?” wrote a Redditor a year ago, drawing the response of, “SSHHHHHHHHHPLOP” from yet another commentator.

Five Alive faded from the U.S. market in the mid ’90s when Coca-Cola introduced Fruitopia in 1994 in a bid to keep up with trends, Tasting Table reported.

Despite a $30-million marketing campaign, a spot in McDonald’s drink offerings and a shoutout from Stephen Hawking on “The Simpsons,” Fruitopia didn’t last either. Coca-Cola did away with it in 2003.

Coca-Cola announced earlier this year that Minute Maid is discontinuing its frozen juice concentrate products altogether “in response to shifting consumer preferences,” as Fox News Business reported.

Five Alive may have evaporated from American stores, but it isn’t fully extinct. 

Coca-Cola advertises both Five Alive and Fruitopia for sale in Canada.

Five Alive is also available in Nigeria, according to Tasting Table.

On its website, Walmart touts Five Alive as “a nutritious blend of five fruit flavors” that has “the ‘citrus zing’ that makes you Feel Alive!”

A suspected drunk driver killed two pedestrians and injured several others Friday evening in a violent chain-reaction crash on Manhattan’s Upper West Side, the New York Police Department (NYPD) told Fox News Digital.

The crash happened around 6 p.m. near the intersection of West 109th Street and Amsterdam Avenue, a busy stretch near residential buildings, restaurants and Columbia University.

Investigators said Elvin Suarez, 61, was driving a 2019 Mercedes-Benz GLC 300 SUV northbound on Amsterdam Avenue when he allegedly first struck a parked Volkswagen Jetta south of the intersection before barreling through West 109th Street, jumping a pedestrian island and hitting four pedestrians.

Police said the Mercedes-Benz continued through the intersection before crashing into a parked Chevrolet Astro van occupied by a 51-year-old man.

The impact pushed the van into several additional parked vehicles, including a Honda CR-V, Toyota Sienna, Toyota 4Runner and Nissan Altima, authorities said.

Emergency responders transported Suarez, the van occupant and the four pedestrians to Mount Sinai Morningside Hospital following the crash.

Two pedestrians — Jason Negron, 46, and Michael Saint-Hilaire, 35, both of Manhattan — were pronounced dead at the hospital, police said.

Suarez, the van occupant and two additional pedestrians, ages 44 and 36, were listed in stable condition.

Police said Suarez was arrested and charged with two counts of manslaughter, three counts of vehicular manslaughter, two counts of vehicular assault and driving while intoxicated.

Authorities have not released additional details about what may have led up to the crash or whether investigators believe speed was also a factor.

The NYPD Highway District’s Collision Investigation Squad is continuing to investigate the deadly collision.

Part of Amsterdam Avenue was shut down Friday evening as investigators examined the scene and crews worked to remove damaged vehicles from the roadway.

Authorities have not said whether Suarez has retained an attorney.
