My favorite moment is when Mindframe and Dornoch hook up at the top of the stretch and we see Dornoch fight off the challenge and hold onto the lead after fast early fractions. That takes the heart of a champion.

[@lizpound2278]

If you know horses and bits Dornoch has a ring bit, blinkers and his ears pinned back - that is a very fit, strong horse to ride and when the jock just shows the whip - if you haven't done don't try.

[@chrisp.9172]

Actually, 47 and change is pretty Average , if not slower for these types of horses. Look at the fractions for Authentic in the Derby and the Classic and he wired them..

[@lizpound2278]

@@chrisp.9172 you completely missed my point - that horse was never asked to do anything which is what a well cared for horse does at that age. These are prey animals. Being first means you stay alive - he was having fun, and Saratoga is a beautiful track. David Cassidy made it clear he wanted his ashes spread there.

It’s a good thing there was no chance of a triple crown winner this year. It would have been always with an asterisk. The 1 1/2 mile Belmont was the ultimate test..1 1/4 doesn’t do it. There’s been more than one horse that lost the triple crown in that last 1/4 mile.

Why a asterisk? If a horse would had this year it would have in the advertised distances. It's not that horse's fault they changed the rules and besides we are talking a 1/4 mile! Personally I think they should have started them on the back stretch and kept a 1 1/2 but o well! We no their is no imagination anymore! Also should there be a asterisk on every baseball game now played because they have a pitch clock? Rules can fluctuate!

Really disappointed that a prestigious track like Saratoga couldn't accommodate the Belmont Stakes at 12 furlongs. Took away a lot for me, because it seems like Sierra Leone and Mindframe would've had a battle royal to the finish, with 2 furlongs more to travel.

Mindframe was held back intentionally

[@montanamountaingarden476]

Well, do you want them to start the race in the middle of the far turn? Bc that's where it would have to be started if they were to run it at the 12 furlong distance

[@happyhapley]

@@montanamountaingarden476 I thought they would've done something like that, but I''m sure they have a good reason for not doing so. I'm biased, with a preference for horses that are stayers/closers. The Belmont is their race.

[@chonch65]

@@happyhapley Actually, closers rarely win the Belmont. Longer races don't necessarily favor the closers. Pace makes the race, regardless of the distance.

[@happyhapley]

@@chonch65 There are front runners as well as closers in every race, no matter the distance. Horses entered in the Belmont Stakes are almost always stayers (prefer 8 furlongs or longer). Closers thrive best when there is competition on the lead. Front runners thrive best when alone on the lead. Notice that I didn't say you were wrong, because, like you said, it mainly depends on the pace of the race.

Fox needs to do better with the audio! Plus, the camera man was already on the fifth horse before they started covering the post parade. Loved the crew from America’s Day at the Races, but a lot of the Fox ppl were terrible.

I Agree.

[@suzanneyoung8011]

Exactly! Fox should not have let their own sports crew host the broadcast. They did a terrible job, and should have gone with the entire crew from America's Day at The Races. I switched over to Fox Sports for a while, and Lafitte Pincay Jr was hosting over there. They should have used him for the entire broadcast on both channels. I don't know why they went with a different crew over there. That was double the time and effort. And if the guy was there on Fox because of a diversity hire so it's not three white guys at the desk, then Lafitte would have fit that bill since he is Hispanic. Just sayin . . .

I think leaving Tyler on Sierra Leone would have been the difference in this race. Chad Brown made a mistake by switching him for Pratt. Sierra Leone lugs in, badly, and that's on Brown and his staff to deal with it. The jockey should not have been pulled off the horse for something beyond his control. He didn't get a great trip and you're right, he got bumped a couple of times.

[@VILJL]

Dornoch, with 17-1 odds, won the 156th running of the Belmont Stakes on Saturday, beating a handful of contenders widely believed to have a greater chance of winning. “It was perfect,” jockey Luis Saez (age 32, born in Panama) said of Dornoch's run to fend off Mindframe (7-2 odds). Trainer Danny Gargan got his first victory in a Triple Crown race. This year's Belmont Stakes was raced at Saratoga and run at 1.25 miles instead of the traditional 1.5 miles because of renovations at Belmont Racetrack. That should be notable for handicapping since typically for the Belmont it's important to look at horses that can go the distance.

I was watching Dornoch early in the season and always really liked him from the start The focus to obsession on Sierra Lione was boring

[@vickieb.932]

I always believed in him, they just let him run his race & not experiment on coming off the pace like in his last race. I knew he could go wire to wire well almost after he took the lead from Sieze The Grey. I hit the Pick 4 & had a phenomenal Day 🎉😊😅😂!

lesson number one NEVER LISTEN TO THE HANDICAPPERS😂😂😂I handicap my races all of them and win lots of MONEY and I won this race THANKS SAEZ❤❤

@@vickieb.932congrats to you I hit the exacta & trifecta thanks to the UPSET❤❤❤GO SAEZ/DORNACH

[@chrisp.9172]

@@VanessaBrown-fb6ue Hey Jeff Sigel showed a flat bet profit with his picks at Del Mar one year, and that was not being privy to post time information, like scratches. I like to think, I'm the handicapper! After all, I don't spend 4 or 5 hours on the form for nothin'..

If Dornach is a filly, we have a scoop.

Maybe that's what he identifies as

I think he meant Philly as in jason werth... who played for the phillies

A bum ride by Prat,even a bigger bum decision by Brown to take TG off.

[@PetalPusher-ci4jx]

From experience, it's bad luck to switch riders.

[@kottdharan8390]

I thought Flavian Pratt would have made a difference. Still, nice race. And yes, Sierra Leon - might become another Concern down the road.

[@joseramirez7430]

I bet ot on him 🎉

A este jockey panameño le sobra Humildad decían q sierra leone por el cambio de monta q el de ortiz en fin se impuso la silla panameña q es elegante I fría como lo demostró nuestro compatriota

Why was tace in Saratoga not at Belmont Park?

[@montanamountaingarden476]

Bc Belmont Park is being renovated

[@kentkluge7721]

I believe in you dornachke

[@lorristan]

I thought that Sierra Leone gave away at least 6 to 8 lengths with being kept out the back and very very wide turn in.

[@MiguelSoto-l4y]

I won 😊

[@royanderson3478]

Good catch. If you like #6 , the idea is and ▶️ around with pick 4 , pick 3 and daily doubles. I would have made large if I liked the #6 .It was not my day 😒. Well on to the Stanley Cup game, Florida vs Edmonton. Should be an exciting hockey

[@MiguelSoto-l4y]

Can't wait for the Latam Cup Puerto Rico Ice Hockey team.

¡Que caballo tan mañoso es Sierra Leone...! 😲 Partió mal, golpeó al número 8 y en la recta final repartió golpes y cruces de línea a diestra y siniestra...! 🙄 Mi favorito Seize the Grey no pudo ¡Otro día será, Wayne...! Saludos desde Venezuela 🇻🇪

Jayson Werth has gone from champion on the diamond to champion on the racetrack. The 15-year big leaguer retired in 2018 The racehorse that Werth co-owns, Dornoch, won the Belmont Stakes, the final leg of horse racing’s Triple Crown, on Saturday at Saratoga Race Course. Dornoch put Werth into the winner’s circle 16 years after he was a part of the Phillies’ 2008 World Series title team. The race was moved to Saratoga Springs, N.Y., this year because Belmont Park is undergoing a renovation project. Dornoch finished 10th in the Derby

I wish horse racing telecasts turned up the grandstand audio.
