WHO'S YOUR BET FOR THE 2005 BELMONT STAKES?
The 2005 Belmont Stakes, which will be held on June 11 in the city that never sleeps, New York City, is on its way to conclude this year's race for the Triple Crown title. The said title is something that can be considered as horse racing's Holy Grail and it saw two closely contested wars in the Kentucky Derby and the Preakness Stakes.
With two legs of the race for the Triple Crown done, it all comes down to New York City for the 
conclusion of this three-race horse war. The 2005 Belmont Stakes is just around the corner, get your betting propositions ready.
Giacomo, being the winner of the 2005 Kentucky Derby, the first leg of the race for the Triple Crown, lost the recently held 2005 Preakness Stakes in Pimlico to none other than Preakness favorite Afleet Alex. That means the Triple Crown, horse racing's Holy Grail, will remain in limbo this year. However, don't expect Giacomo to lose his desire to win, he will surely come out to race the 2005 Belmont Stakes determined to redeem himself from the disappointment at Pimlico.
Giacomo failed to resume his quest for the Triple Crown, horse racing's Holy Grail, when a colt named Afleet Alex overcame disaster and blazed through all contenders to win the second leg of the three-race horse war.
In the end, it was the Preakness Stakes favorite, Afleet Alex, who came out on top in Pimlico, much to the delight of horse racing bettors from all over the world. However, one favorite looms in the horizon and is bidding to make a comeback for the last leg of this year's three-race face-off in the horse racing world.
A colt named Bellamy Road.
Bellamy Road was the favorite to win this year's Kentucky Derby only to finish to a solid but rather disappointing 7th place finish. Bellamy Road went down at the Kentucky Derby and boy, did he fell down hard, resulting in a no-show at the second leg of the race for the Triple Crown. However, there are reports that claim Bellamy Road could be back in training in the next three to four weeks. Edward Sexton, the man running Steinbrenner's Kinsman Farm in Ocala, Fla., said that the popped splint in Bellamy Road's left front leg was a very minute injury.
Moreover, with the third leg of the race approaching, another contender, this time a fallen horse from the 2005 Kentucky Derby, is bidding his way for a mad comeback for the Belmont Stakes. Don't Get Mad.
Trainer, Ron Ellis, said that Don't Get Mad remains a probable starter for the coming 2005 Belmont Stakes. Ellis also said that Don't Get Mad, owned by B. Wayne Hughes, will more likely run for the $200,000 Northern Dancer Handicap on the Stephen Foster undercard on June 18 at Churchill next.
Aside from the said contenders, there are also the three newcomers that made their respective debuts at the Preakness that could join in the fray for the Belmont Stakes. Hal's Image, a winner 
of the Unbridled Stakes, Scrappy T, the contender who almost caused Afleet Alex the Preakness Stakes war and also the winner of the Withers and lastly, Tesio Stakes winner, Malibu Moonshine.
We all saw it at the 2005 Kentucky Derby, virtual unknowns are favorites and favorites become virtual unknowns once the horse war is over. In the 2005 Preakness Stakes, we saw the favorite almost came that close from becoming a disaster. At the 2005 Belmont Stakes, we could see the unexpected again. Whatever happens, only one thing is certain, only one horse will emerge victorious and the rest of the pack will go home as losers.
