This year the New York Racing Association proudly plays host to yet another running of the Belmont Stakes, an action packed adrenaline rush that is considered by many to be the most exciting 2 minutes in all of Sports. In keeping with tradition, the crew at Belmont Park in New York has pulled out all the stops: a luxurious, star studded horse racing event is planned, with all the best horses, trainers, and jockeys vying for the Belmont championship.
The Belmont Stake is also the third and final leg of the world renowned Triple Crown, horse racing's darling event that has only been won by a handful of amazing horses. This is the race that makes or breaks Triple Crown hopefuls, and in years past, it has proven to be a race full of upsets, surprises, and results no one ever expected. In 2008, Triple Crown hopeful Big Brown dropped out, opening the field up for any horse to win. When it was all said and done, upset winner Da’ Tara steamed down the home stretch and into Belmont Park history, grabbing the win against long odds. No one expected Da’ Tara would even finish in the top 5, let alone trot away with the winning purse.
Over the years, Belmont Stakes betting has been nothing short of thrilling. In the 1970's, the Triple Crown horse racing events saw the likes of Secretariat and Seattle Slew, the two most recent winners of this amazing horse racing honor. In recent times, many horses have come close to completing the hat trick at Belmont Stakes, only to have unfortunate races and leave their Triple Crown dreams on the track. Big Brown, War Emblem, and others come to mind. These two horses stormed through the Kentucky Derby and Preakness Stakes, only to fall short at Belmont Park, the third and final Triple Crown event.
Even if the Triple Crown isn't being contested, the action at Belmont Park is still formidable. This is a huge event in horse racing, where the best of the best trainers, jockeys, owners, and teams come to compete for a huge cash prize. In some years, the handle at the Belmont Stakes has been well into the millions of dollars, making this event especially important for horse owners looking for both riches and bragging rights.
