Belmont Stakes 2025: Odds, horses, prediction, complete bettor's guide
Gambling content 21+. The New York Post may receive an affiliate commission if you sign up through our links. Read our editorial standards for more information. Rodriguez, training on Saratoga Race Course on June 5, 2025, will win Saturday's Belmont Stakes, Vic Cangialosi predicts. An inside look at how the 157th Belmont Stakes will shape up: 1. Hill Road Jockey: Irad Ortiz Trainer: Chad Brown Advertisement Current form: Was an unimpressive third in the Tampa Bay Derby. But he's a live long shot now after closing well to win the shorter Peter Pan at Aqueduct. Worth a wager: Chad Brown winning his first Belmont Stakes only minutes from his hometown makes for a feel-good story. But his stretch runner meets better and will be hard pressed to outkick the Derby/Preakness champs. Fifth. 2. Sovereignty Jockey: Junior Alvarado Trainer: Bill Mott Current form: Fast-closing second in the Florida Derby. No one will remember that after his magical run from 16 horses back to get up and win the Kentucky Derby over a sloppy surface. Kentucky Derby winner Sovereignty trains at the Saratoga Race Course on June 5, 2025 in preparation for Saturday's Belmont Stakes. Getty Images Worth a wager: He's back! Bill Mott decided to skip the Preakness (not a popular decision) so the five-week rest will be beneficial. And Junior Alvarado, $62,000 lighter after a whip-abuse fine, is back to ride as well. No matter. Putting him fourth. 3. Rodriguez Jockey: Mike Smith Trainer: Bob Baffert Advertisement Current form: Finished nearly a dozen lengths behind Journalism in the San Felipe. Bob Baffert shipped him east and he won the Wood Memorial wire-to-wire. Worth a wager: Slowpoke Rodriguez turned on the speed and never looked back in the Wood. Missed the first two legs of the Triple Crown due to foot issues. Dances with Crudo early. Holds off the big boys under Mike Smith. Winner. Rodriguez, training on Saratoga Race Course on June 5, 2025, will win Saturday's Belmont Stakes, Vic Cangialosi predicts. AP 4. Uncaged Jockey: Luis Saez Trainer: Todd Pletcher Current form: Made his stakes debut in the Peter Pan after winning two of three. It didn't go well. Reported home sixth of seven with no excuses. Worth a wager: Stretched to nine furlongs in the Peter Pan and didn't appreciate the additional yardage. Rider change to Luis Saez who won last year's edition on Dornoch. Mike Repole in the winners circle? Happens more often than not. But we will put him seventh. 5. Crudo Jockey: John Velazquez Trainer: Todd Pletcher Crudo looks on from his Saratoga barn stall on June 5, 2025 before Saturday's Belmont Stakes. Jason Szenes / New York Post Current form: Loads off a pair of handy seven-length, gate-to-wire victories. The latest in the Sir Barton at Pimlico. Advertisement Worth a wager: Figs don't match up well but Bobby Flay's colt will cook early, matching strides with Rodriguez. Will be very surprised if he and Johnny V are still around when they turn for home. A tired sixth. 6. Baeza Jockey: Flavien Prat Trainer: John Sheriffs Current form: Runner up, only 3/4 of a length behind Journalism in the Santa Anita Derby. Followed that up with a fast-closing third behind Sovereignty in the Kentucky Derby. Get the lowdown on the Best USA Sports Betting Sites and Apps Worth a wager: Has proven he can compete with the best 3-year-olds. Getting better as well. Ran from the back of the pack in the Derby but he's versatile and Flavien Prat may tap his speed and get the jump on the co-faves. Strong but second. 7. Journalism Jockey: Umberto Rispoli Trainer: Michael McCarthy Advertisement Current form: Looked like a winner in the Run for the Roses but he was passed deep stretch by Sovereignty. Rebounded two weeks later to take the Preakness. Worth a wager: In a word, tough. Tough beat in the Derby then tougher splitting horses in the bumper-car stretch in the Preakness. Short rest to face rival Sovereignty. Beats him, but finishes third. Preakness winner Journalism works out on Saratoga Race Course on June 5, 2025 in preparation for Saturday's Belmont Stakes. Getty Images 8. Heart of Honor Jockey: Saffie Osbourne Trainer: James Osbourne Current form: Narrowly defeated in the UAE Derby at Meydan. Made U.S. debut in the Preakness and finished a respectable fifth. Worth a wager: Didn't know what to expect. Had trouble loading the gate. Picked up the pieces at Pimlico and passed tired horses. Will be just as surprised if he finishes fifth here. Last of eight.

Belmont Stakes at Saratoga is a Kentucky Derby rematch
SARATOGA SPRINGS, N.Y. (AP) — The Triple Crown concludes Saturday with the 157th running of the Belmont Stakes. The race is a rematch between Kentucky Derby winner Sovereignty and runner-up Journalism, who is the favorite after winning the Preakness. Derby third-place finisher Baeza also is in the field of eight. Advertisement Sovereignty is racing for the first time since the first Saturday in May. Owners and trainer Bill Mott decided not to enter Sovereignty in the Preakness because of the short, two-week turnaround. Journalism is the only horse running in all three legs of the Triple Crown this year. Bob Baffert-trained Rodriguez is in the Belmont after being scratched from the Derby because of a minor foot bruise that also kept the colt out of the Preakness. The Belmont is taking place for a second consecutive time at historic Saratoga Race Course in upstate New York. The New York Racing Association temporarily relocated it there while Belmont Park on Long Island undergoes nearly half a billion dollars in renovations. ___ AP horse racing: The Associated Press

Kentucky Derby winner Sovereignty defeats Journalism again to take the 157th running of the Belmont Stakes
In a rematch that lived up to its billing, Kentucky Derby winner Sovereignty galloped to victory over heavy favorite Journalism in muddy conditions at the 157th Belmont Stakes in Saratoga Springs, New York, on Saturday in the third leg of the Triple Crown. Sovereignty, who entered the race with 2-to-1 odds, defeated a field of seven challengers. Journalism finished in second place. The race marked a kind of replay of the Derby, in which Sovereignty had finished in first and Journalism was the runner-up. Jockey Junior Alvarado reacts aboard Sovereignty as he crosses the finish line to win the 157th running of the Belmont Stakes horse race on June 7, 2025, in Saratoga Springs, New York. Jessica Hill / AP Sovereignty, a bay colt, is the first ever horse to win the Derby, skip the Preakness Stakes, and then win the Belmont. The last horse to run in an all three legs of the Triple Crown and win the Derby and Belmont was Thunder Gulch in 1995. Journalism had entered as the heavy favorite after winning the Preakness. Derby third-place finisher Baeza was also in the field of eight. Journalism was the only horse who ran in all three legs of the Triple Crown this year. Bob Baffert-trained Rodriguez was in the Belmont after being scratched from the Derby because of a minor foot bruise that also kept the colt out of the Preakness. Jockey Junior Alvarado, who rode Sovereignty to victory at the Derby, was also his mount on Saturday. was fined $62,000 and suspended for two racing days in Kentucky by the state's Board of Stewards for allegedly using his riding crop too much in the Derby. Alvarado is appealing the decision. The Belmont took place for a second consecutive time at the historic Saratoga Race Course in upstate New York. The New York Racing Association temporarily relocated it there while Belmont Park on Long Island undergoes nearly half-a-billion dollars in renovations. Because it was held at Saratoga, the Belmont was 1 1/4 miles long instead of the usual 1 1/2 miles, making the race known as the Test of the Champion the same length as the Derby. This is a developing story and will be updated.
