Point Given was off the board in the Derby before winning the Preakness, Belmont, and Travers.....sandwiching a Haskell win inbetween. The last horse to hit the board in all three TC races and then win the Travers was Thunder Gulch 14 years ago (Derby/Belmont winner, 3rd in Preakness).

None of the Triple Crown in-the-money finishers since 1995......Silver Charm, Real Quiet, Charismatic, Funny Cide, Smarty Jones, and Afleet Alex.....even competed in the Travers, which more accurately answers your question.
