The Belmont Stakes is a Thoroughbred horse race held on the first or second Saturday in June at Belmont Park in Elmont, New York   The 150th Belmont Stakes took place on Saturday, June 9, 2018 was won by Justify, and became the second horse in four years to win the Triple Crown.

“Maiden special weight races at Belmont Park for the spring/summer meet will see purses increase from $75,000 to $80,000, while similar $5,000 purse increases will be implemented for first-and-second-level allowance races,” reports Thoroughbred Daily News.

It was since 1868 that the race has been going at Jerome and Morris Park and became bigger and great at the Belmont Park even after the race was canceled in 1911 and 1912.

No one dared to stop the racing heat at the dirt tracks with three-year-old sprint rockstars.

It was in 1931 when the order of the Triple Crown series was made where the Kentucky Derby is scheduled first, followed by the Preakness Stakes and finally the Belmont Stakes.

Over 120,000 people attended in 2004 which is quite a good record in Belmont Stakes history where Birdstone played the pantomime villain in upsetting Triple Crown hope Smarty Jones.

The guaranteed purse for Belmont Stakes tops up at $1,500,000 where the winner collects a bulk of his $800,000 first place prize.

Everyone is stoked to witness the best of the best runners from both Kentucky Derby and Preakness Stakes to win their way down to the finish line at Belmont Stakes--the third and last leg of the Triple Crown championship series.

Belmont Park’s dirt track is not only bigger but also the most challenging for distance horses because of its mile-and-a-half circuit of 12 furlongs which definitely gives a difference from the usual 9 and a half at Kentucky and 10 furlongs at Preakness.

The Test of the Champions is the oldest of the three races which are now on its 151st run. It is a mile-and-a-half dirt track race for the 3-year-old thoroughbred rock stars who left their marks on each race showing everyone what they got.

Now on its 151st running this coming June 9, everyone is excited to see if their favorite horses would get a chance to steal the crown from last year’s crown-bearer, Justify.

Justify’s team followed a similar training regimen at Churchill until shipping to New York for Belmont. About 90,000 sold-out attendees witnessed his win leading by two lengths over Restoring Hope as he completed the mile in 1:38:09.

The win made Justify the 13th American Triple Crown winner and just the second horse to accomplish the feat while still undefeated, joining 1977 winner Seattle Slew.

Justify’s win last year adds up to the thrill for all racers and bet players as it is a potential trap for them for centuries now. With the odds being a little higher than usually seen with the winners from the two legs, the racehorses competing in Belmont can be narrowed down to be trained by the biggest handlers in the business which makes it not hard to find for handicappers.

This talented colt is still the post-time favourite and the one to beat on June 9 with an odd of 4-5. The horse to look after this season is Todd Pletcher’s Vino Rosso who most probably have been training really well for this year’s races and Tenfold who was a close-up third to Justify in last year’s Preakness carrying both a running style and pedigree which suggests him to excel over this extra two-furlong distance.

Belmont Stakes is a potential trap for bettors. Despite the odds being a little higher than usually seen with the winners from the two legs, the racehorses competing in Belmont can be narrowed down to be trained by the biggest handlers in the business which makes it not hard to find for handicappers.
