Belmont Stakes 2025 draw: Post positions, full field, odds for final leg of Triple Crown race
The stage for the final leg of horse racing's Triple Crown race is set.
Although there won't be a Triple Crown winner in 2025, the 2025 Belmont Stakes will still be a highly-anticipated attraction with the rematch for the first jewels of the sport's premier races. After not running in the Preakness Stakes, 2025 Kentucky Derby winner Sovereignty makes his return to the track and faces Journalism, the winner of the Preakness. The two went down to the wire at Churchill Downs and they'll meet again for another chance of glory.
The race will still be held at Saratoga Race Course as Belmont Park is still undergoing renovations, and as a result, the race will be contested at 1 ¼-mile instead of the traditional 1 ½-mile distance. Journalism and Sovereignty are the favorites, but could another thoroughbred spoil the rematch and take the title in New York?
