Hall of Fame trainer Todd Pletcher will be sending a total of three contenders to this year's Belmont Stakes. One of them is Bourbonic with a payout potential of $2000 on every $100 bet.
He finished an abysmal 13th at this year's Kentucky Derby, but the dark bay Bernardini colt, rallied last-to-first under Kendrick Carmouche at odds of 72-1 to notch a record upset in the nine-furlong Wood Memorial. He cannot be discounted.
The Grade 1, $1.5 million Belmont Stakes presented by NYRA Bets on Saturday, June 5, features a three-day Belmont Stakes Racing Festival that kicks off on Thursday, June 3 and will include 17 stakes races in total, with eight Grade 1 races to be contested on Belmont Stakes Day.
