The Belmont Stakes, the third and final leg of horse racings prestigious Triple Crown.
Comprised of three races for the top 3-year old thoroughbreds, there hasn’t been a
horse that’s won the Kentucky Derby, Preakness Stakes and the Belmont Stakes in
almost 30 years. With Casino Drive out of today’s race there is very little standing
between overwhelming favorite Big Brown and his quest for glory. Only 11 horses
have accomplished this rare feat since 1919 but none quite like the horse ESPN lists
at # 35 in their top 100 Greatest Athletes of the 20th Century, Secretariat.
Here is the super horse in his 1973 Belmont Stakes victory.
