Belmont Stakes 142 Track Odds |
 |
There are a number of ways to
bet on the Belmont stakes, and online betting sites offer a
wealth of advice, including the latest odds, contenders,
track conditions, and other useful tips for horse race
gambling. The most common types of wagers are win, place,
and show, betting on first, second, and third place winners.
Another popular wager is across the board, a bet on only one
horse. If the horse wins, you collect three ways, if it
places, collect two ways, and if third, collect only one bet
for show.
In addition, there are other exotic or fancy Belmont Stakes
horse racing wagers. The exacta, or perfecta, is a bet on
the first two winners in a chosen order, and the trifecta is
for the three winners in exact order. These two bets have
higher payouts and offer a great way to analyze the odds.
Other options include the quinella, picking the first two
winners, in no particular order, and the superfecta, betting
on four winners, in a chosen order.
There are several factors to
consider in Belmont Stakes horse racing before placing a
bet. The breeding line, or pedigree, is perhaps one of the
most important considerations. Because of its distance and
status as the race that can make or break a Triple Crown
champion. Twenty-six horses have been eligible to win the
Triple Crown coming into the Belmont Stakes and a total of
eleven winners have sired at least one other previous
winner. Many of the Belmont Stakes winners have been bred in
Kentucky, but again there have been exceptions. Experience
and size of the horses is relatively unimportant, as well,
and will not necessarily predict a winner in the Belmont
Stakes. A combination of stamina and speed is needed for
this demanding race. Furthermore, recent history has shown
that four out of the six winners in the field of contenders
for the Belmont Stakes were "longshots."
Belmont Stakes Betting Tips
Horses are either main track horses or turf horses, not
both. It is very rare that a horse will run well on both
surfaces. Breeding plays a major factor here, as there are
physical aspects of a horse which make the horse better on
the turf or dirt.
Take track condition into consideration. This is a HUGE
factor. Similar to the dirt vs. turf issue, some horses
prefer a dry track while others prefer a wet track. This
applies on the dirt as well as on the turf.
Belmont Trophy
The Belmont Stakes trophy is a Tiffany-made silver bowl, with
cover, 18 inches high, 15 inches across and 14 inches at the
base. Atop the cover is a silver figure of Fenian, winner of
the third running of the Belmont Stakes in 1869. The bowl is
supported by three horses representing the three foundation
thoroughbreds Eclipse, Herod and Matchem. The trophy, a solid
silver bowl originally crafted by Tiffany's, was presented by
the Belmont family as a perpetual award for the Belmont Stakes
in 1926. It was the trophy August Belmont's Fenian won in 1869
and had remained with the Belmont family since that time. The
winning owner is given the option of keeping the trophy for
the year their horse reigns as Belmont champion.
