At the top of the list is trainer Barclay Tagg’s Tiz the Law as the -140 favorite. This three-year old New York-bred colt is also a +225 favorite to win the Kentucky Derby on that futures board. The second-favorite to win the Belmont Stakes is Tap It To Win at +500 betting odds. This three-year old Florida-bred colt is trained by Mark Casse. He is coming off a recent win at Belmont on June 4 in a 1 1/16 mile Allowance Claimer.
A few other contenders on the Belmont Stakes’ futures list include Dr. Post (+700), Sole Volante (+800) and Modernist (+1400).
By the time Saturday’s post time rolls around, you will also be able to bet on a few head-to-head matchups at America’s Bookie sportsbook along with a few special prop bet options covering different aspects of the race.
