Belmont Stakes 2022 Odds
The Belmont Stakes betting will really shape up once the The Kentucky Derby and Preakness Stakes have taken place in May/June. We'll bring you the latest Belmont Stakes odds along with analysis and betting guides in those three weeks following the Preakness.
Run at a distance of 1 ½ miles as the last leg of the Triple Crown series, the Grade 1 Belmont Stakes is fittingly known as the ‘Test of the Champion.’ The race takes place in early June, five weeks after the Kentucky Derby and three weeks after the Preakness Stakes, and lives up to its name with a test of sheer stamina that is all but obsolete in contemporary American dirt racing, which comes at the end of a demanding Triple Crown schedule.
We'll be covering the Belmont Stakes betting as we count down to the big race with the latest Belmont Stakes odds added when they become available.
Essential Quality won the 2021 race as he put himself back in the frame to be the top three-year-old of the year.
The 2022 edition of the race is scheduled to be run at Belmont Park, NY on Saturday, June 12, 2022 and our coverage of the event will pick up nearer the date.
Our Race Card for the 2021 event can still be viewed below.
