Belmont, NY – California Chrome will find familiar foes among him when he faces a field much like the previous two legs of the Triple Crown that the 2-year old conquered. Belmont Stakes Betting Odds 2014 have California Chrome listed as the 5/7 early favorite for the 146th running of the Belmont Stakes on June 5th. The race that is dubbed the “Test Of The Champion” will feature two new entrants that have not competed in either the Kentucky Derby or Preakness Stakes in Todd Pletched trained Commissioner (10/1) and Tonalist (9/1).

Belmont Stakes Expert Picks Analysis: “Betting the house” on a Triple Crown winner is a dicey proposition when it comes to the Belmont Stakes with so many Derby and Preakness winners not having a big enough gas tank to cash in. From a trainers perspective, their is no way to truly prepare a horse for the 1.5-mile distance of the Belmont Stakes. If history is any indication of what will happen, it should be noted that 13 out of 36 horses have won the Derby and Preakness have come up short at Belmont Park.

It has been 36 years since their has been a Triple Crown winner but records are meant to be broken. Ride On Curlin (10/1) gave C.C a run for his money in the Preakness and Derby but came up short. The rest of the Belmont field has not come close to beating the deep winded C.C. Todd Pletcher’s charge Commissioner is an intriguing entrant but neither Pletcher’s horse or Tonalist have the goods to knock off Chrome. Sometimes the “chalk” is the pick.
