Sat, June 9, 2012. Belmont Park Racetrack. Elmont, New York. |
The Triple Crown of Thoroughbred Racing consists of three races for three-year-old thoroughbred horses.
Winning all three of these thoroughbred horse races is considered the greatest accomplishment
of a thoroughbred racehorse, the Triple Crown Belmont Stakes is the final race of the Triple Crown,
it is called the "Test of the Champion".
Belmont Park Race Track is a major horse-racing facility located just outside New York City,
in the adjacent Nassau County suburb of Elmont, Long Island. Its mile and one half main track
is the largest dirt course in Thoroughbred racing. It first opened May 4, 1905.
Most three-year-olds are unaccustomed to the distance, and lack the ability to maintain a winning
speed for so long. In a long race such as the Belmont, positioning of the horse and the timing of
the move to chase for the lead can be critical.
The race distance has varied: from 1867 until 1873, it was 1 5/8 miles (2.6 km). In 1874 the
distance was reduced to 1 1/2 miles (2.4 km), and from 1890 to 1892, and in 1895, the distance
was 1 1/4 miles (2 km). From 1896 until 1925, the distance was increased to the original
1 5/8 miles (2.6 km). In 1926, the race distance was set at the present 1 1/2 miles (2.4 km).
