PLEASANT COLONY (1981)

After fighting off Woodchopper in a thrilling Kentucky Derby, Pleasant Colony came from behind to beat Bold Ego by a length in the Preakness. Alas, the four-year-old simply started too slow at the Belmont. Pleasant Colony was in last place after the first third of the race before creeping up to the middle of the pack at the far turn. It was too little too late though as the horse finished third to longshot Summing.

I do not think "failed" is an appropriate word to use, since this fabulous horse is not even in the race anymore.
