Belmont Stakes 2020 Contenders: Odds Info for Favorites in Triple Crown Leg 1 (Saturday)

Bleacher Report ^ | 6/18/20 | Blake Schuster

The first jewel of horse racing's Triple Crown will look a bit different in 2020.

Instead of the Kentucky Derby acting as the opening event, the Belmont Stakes—typically the final leg of the Triple Crown—will kick off the sport's championship season.

Oddsmakers aren't too hopeful fans will see the first Triple Crown winner since Justify accomplish the feat in 2018.

Bovada lists the odds of a Triple Crown winner in 2020 at +700 (bet $100 to win $700) while the odds that there will not be a Triple Crown winner are -1600 (bet $1,600 to win $100).

That doesn't mean there aren't plenty of horses worth keeping an eye on when the gates open for Race 10 on Saturday at Belmont Park in Elmont, New York.

There's only ONE Belmont Stakes...and it will always be historic.

Big Red caught literally flying...

Just magnificent.

[Avalon Memories]

Yes, the Dwyer renamed and it is not a classic.

FYI: This is no true Triple Crown, but maybe 2020 can give racing hope for a better future

Thanks for that article. Mr. Vanderbilt’s father owned another legendary horse, the great Native Dancer.
