While it's obviously rare for a Derby-Preakness to not attempt the Triple Crown, it's fairly common in recent years for both the Derby and Preakness winners to fail to show up for the final leg (2000, 2006, 2010, 2012)).
Union Rags or Dullahan would be fine additions to the list of winners based on prior accomplishments.
