Samraat Odds to Win the Belmont Stakes

Samratt odds to win the 2014 Belmont Stakes were set at just shy of 23/1 at AceSportsbook.com.

Which Horses Can Run the Distance at 2014 Belmont Stakes? Commissioner Can

Saturday’s Belmont Stakes race will be one of the longest any of the slated contenders have ever run.  Handicappers will most certainly be looking for entries that can run the distance.  One of Saturday’s contenders who is bred for distance is none other than Commissioner, coming in at long 45/1 odds at BetDSI.com.

The Belmont Stakes post positions are now known for this weekend’s race and California Chrome will be starting from a very good spot at number 2.  This post position has yielded a total of eleven winners in the history of the Belmont Stakes.

And guess what?  That's the same number as 1973 Triple Crown winner Secretariat.

It’s also the same number Big Red drew, though he ran from the rail due to another horse being scratched.  Big Red set unbelievable Belmont Stakes records - 31 lengths and 2:24.
