all in The Sport

Although Kentucky native Kenny Rice has a wealth of experience covering horse racing, nothing has quite prepared him for the 152nd edition of the Belmont Stakes Presented by NYRA Bets on Saturday.

The Longines Acorn Stakes at Belmont Park has a long, storied history as a significant race for 3-year-old fillies as it requires a combination of speed and stamina as a one-turn mile.

This year’s Belmont Stakes will be different than any other, with a new date, distance, and track regulations, but it will still draw the attention of sports fans from across the nation as well as some of the best 3-year-old Thoroughbreds in the country.

Read on for facts and figures on Saturday’s race at Belmont Park.

The jockeys represented in Saturday’s 152nd Belmont Stakes at Belmont Park represent some of the best in the sport, including three prior Belmont Stakes-winning riders and two making their very first start in the classic.

Training continues to progress like clockwork for Tiz the Law, and trainer Barclay Tagg could not be happier about it – or feeling more fortunate.
