Uncover the Hidden Contenders Set to Shake Up 2025 Belmont Stakes Day at Saratoga Race Course
The 2025 Belmont Stakes at Saratoga Race Course is shaping up to be the kind of spectacle that makes you wonder: can anything else really compete on the same day? Sure, the final leg of the Triple Crown grabs all the headlines—and for good reason—but there’s a whole cavalcade of 11 other races, six of them graded stakes, that deserve a second glance. As a Saratoga native, I’m a little biased—after all, I nabbed the Exacta last year when Dornoch edged out Mindframe—but living near this sporting cathedral adds a layer of reverence to the whole festival that you can’t fake. Rain’s already reshuffled the deck, pushing the Jaipur and Manhattan Stakes to Sunday, but that’s horse racing for you—unpredictable and relentless. So, whether it’s rain or shine, buckle up for some solid picks across Races 8, 10-11, and 13 because if history has taught me anything, the magic’s in the details, not just the main event. LEARN MOREThe 2025 Belmont Stakes is the main event on Saturday at Saratoga Race Course. However, don’t sleep on the other 11 races, including six graded stakes events, highlighted by the final leg of the Triple Crown.Â
