Early Belmont Stakes Horse Odds |
The 2010 Belmont Stakes
prize purse is $1 million. The third jewel of the Triple
Crown is the Belmont Stakes, held five weeks after the
Kentucky Derby at Belmont Park in Elmont, New York.
The first Belmont in the
United States was not the famous stakes race or even the
man for whom it is named. Rather, the first Belmont was
a race horse that arrived in California in 1853 from his
breeding grounds of Franklin, Ohio. The Belmont Stakes,
however, are named after August Belmont, a financier who
made quite a name and fortune for himself in New York
politics and society. Obviously, Mr. Belmont was also
quite involved in horse racing, and his imprint is even
intertwined within the history of the Kentucky Derby.2010 Belmont Stakes Winner info

Preakness Stakes has a rich history, it was first run two years before the Derby, in 1873, and was named after the horse who won the 1870 Dinner Party Stakes, Preakness.
The highlight of a
26-race stakes spring schedule worth $3.9 million, the
135th running of the $1 million Preakness Stakes set to take place on May 15 at Pimlico
Race Course.
Preakness Stakes at
Pimlico
The Preakness Stakes is a Grade 1 stakes race for three-year-old thoroughbred horses, run at a classic distance of 1 3/16 miles (9.75 furlongs; 1.91 km) on a dirt track. Colts and geldings carry 126 pounds (57 kg), while fillies carry 121 pounds (55 kg).
Fans love the turf races because they attract larger fields of horses, which makes the outcome for the bettors more interesting. Last year's Pimlico
spring meet showed a 5 percent increase in total
wagering over the year before, despite eight fewer live
racing days. The average daily handle at the track was
almost $7 million.
