The Preakness winner isn’t even the favorite. This year’s Belmont Stakes may hold little appeal for the casual fan, but that’s okay: A Belmont day at Belmont Park without a Triple Crown on the line has long been one of the best days on the racing calendar, and this Saturday will be no different.
Ten horses have entered the Belmont, including the top two finishers in last month’s Preakness, War of Will and Everfast. Master Fencer, the Japanese-bred horse that finished sixth in the Kentucky Derby, is back for the Belmont. The weather is supposed to be perfect. And it will be a fantastic betting race.
We’ll be back later this week with betting advice and suggestions. For now, here’s a look at the field for the 151st Belmont Stakes.

I’ll save everyone the click. No, there is not.
