phelps 6,770 Posted June 4, 2018 #5 Share Posted June 4, 2018 10 ore fa, NaBUru38 ha scritto: 2018 Belmont Stakes Location: Belmont Park, New York, United States Date: Saturday June 9 Purse: US$ 1.5 million Distance: 1.5 miles (2414 meters) Criteria: 3-year-olds (126 lb for colts, 121 lb for fillies) more on that... Belmont Stakes are the 3rd of the 3 races of the well known US Triple Crown... and this year, for the 22nd time, we have a horse that won the first 2 "chapters" (Kentucky Derby and Preakness Stakes): his name is Justify but the Belmont Stakes are longer and quite different from the other 2 races, so the Triple was completed only 12 times, the last one being the 2015 triumph by American Pharoah (and before him, the last TC hero was Affirmed in 1978)... all you need to know on the Triple Crown races, it's on this website: http://www.triplecrownraces.com/ NaBUru38 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

heywoodu 13,540 Posted June 4, 2018 #7 Share Posted June 4, 2018 Still, all those American races don't even come close to races like the Epsom Derby and those kind of races that were already held well over 200 years ago NaBUru38 1 If you'd like to help our fellow Totallympics member Bruna Moura get to the 2026 Winter Olympics, after her car crash on the way to the 2022 Olympics, every tiny bit of help would be greatly appreciated!

NaBUru38 204 Posted June 7, 2018 #9 Share Posted June 7, 2018 There's only 10 entries for the Belmont Stakes. It seems ridiculously low to me, I would expect around two dozens of horses. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
