2014 Belmont Stakes Predictions

BetDSI.com has your 2014 Belmont Stakes predictions and all the latest horse racing odds.

When it comes to betting on the Belmont Stakes you normally just bet the favorite but that strategy has not been as successful in the last decade as it was early in the race's history. There was a period of 32 years when the favorite won 19 times. In the past 15 years the favorite has struggled, especially Triple Crown hopefuls as they have lost every time.

When you bet Belmont Stakes odds you have a lot of choices. You can bet the win, place and show and you can also bet exotics like the exacta, quinella, trifecta and superfecta. You can also play some pick threes and the pick four or pick six and include the Belmont Stakes.

Belmont Stakes Handicapping

The best choice is going with the horse with tactical speed. Horses that are just closers almost never win this race. You want a horse that is a stalker and is close to the pace. Even though the race is long, you don't want a closer.

The Belmont is an unpredictable race because of the distance. Horses that are bred to run a distance can oftentimes surprise horses that are favored in this race.
