We are down to the final race of the Triple Crown now, the Belmont Stakes in New York on June 9. With the same three horses finishing in the top three in both the Kentucky Derby and Preakness, we have the possibility of three-way rematch. Curlin and Hard Spun are already definite with only Street Sense on the fence still. There are also several Derby horses who skipped the Preakness coming back to join the fray, including Wood Memorial winner Nobiz Like Shobiz and Santa Anita Derby winner Tiago. Here is the current list of horses planning to start in the Belmont and while it isn't a long list yet, more could join in the next two weeks. Entries will be drawn on June 6, so there is plenty of time for changes before then.
