Well, the public was not let down as we finally have a Triple Crown winner after nearly 40 years and this year’s Belmont Stakes was also a winner it appears.
The folks from TVG.com have released critical betting data to Gambling911.com just hours after American Pharoah’s triumphant win and here it is:
— An estimated 600,000 individuals placed wagers at the Belmont Stakes
— Nearly half of all wagers placed were in favor of American Pharoah
— Betting on mobile devices was up 45 percent from the 2014 Belmont Stakes Day
— Mobile bettors on average are eleven years younger than those betting via desktop
- Americans placed an average bet of $48.60 on American Pharoah
Perhaps the most important piece of data: The racebooks got crushed with American Pharoah’s win.
