all in Triple Crown

Although there’s not a Triple Crown on the line this year, the 156th Belmont Stakes Presented by NYRA Bets is still generating a great deal of excitement. First of all, the $2 million race on Saturday, June 8, will be held for the first time in history at Saratoga Race Course, one of the crown jewel racetracks in the sport.

Tom Pedulla offers takeaways from the weekend as probable starters for Saturday’s $2 million Belmont Stakes Presented by NYRA Bets produced their final workouts ahead of the 1 ¼-mile contest at Saratoga Race Course.

The third jewel in horse racing’s Triple Crown is set for Saturday, June 8, wrapping up an exciting five weeks when the sport takes center stage in American culture.

This year’s move of the Belmont Stakes Presented by NYRA Bets to Saratoga Race Course will pose more than a few handicapping challenges for horseplayers, who are used to analyzing the race at its home track at Belmont Park and not at Saratoga.

The Belmont Stakes has a rich history dating back to its inception in 1867, which means there is no shortage of interesting numbers associated with the race that is often called the “Test of the Champion.”
