Belmont History on this day:
In 1973 Secretariat wrote his name into Belmont & Triple Crown history with his 31 lgth win
In 1979 Spectacular Bid finished 3rd losing his chance of landing the Triple Crown
In 2001 Point Given followed up his Preakness win with a 12 lgth victory
@StarCalliope@gracieback2 Secretariat had a 22lb heart and I believe they have said almost perfect confirmation, so he was able to get the job done and he did😊👑👑👑🏇
On this day in 1935 Omaha became the 3rd Triple Crown winner
In 1985 Brushwood Stable’s Creme Fraiche became the first gelding to win the Belmont Stakes
In 2002 a record 103,222 saw War Emblem fail to land the Triple Crown finishing in 8th in the Belmont behind longshot Sarava
❤️GOLDEN TEMPO hanging with his groom José Hernández the day after his second classic win.
@Saratoga1863's Jim Dandy (8/1) and the Travers (8/29) are next!
(📺@Mike_MacAdam)
Golden Tempo will head back to Keeneland on Monday. But Cherie DeVaux says the plan is to have him back at Saratoga for the Jim Dandy and Travers Stakes this summer.

The Bet Ontario Handicapping Contest is another fantastic reason to be at @WoodbineSB on June 13 for Pepsi North America Cup Night.

Saw this posted and have to ask...does anyone who was on the backside or getting ready to run their horses feel this did really freak them out and possibly affected their performance?
