2023 Belmont Stakes horses
We've taken an in-depth look at the nine horses running and their odds to win the Belmont Stakes.  Tapit Shoes Jockey: Jose Ortiz
Trainer: Brad Cox
Post Position: 1
Odds: 20/1 Tapit Shoes might be a little light on accomplishments, but there's plenty of potential for growth on Saturday. He was second beaten just a head by Red Route One in the Bath House Row Stakes at Oaklawn when last seen. Being by Tapit, who has sired four Belmont winners, the distance should be right up thr alley of this Brad Cox trainee. Tapit Trice Jockey: Luis Saez
Trainer: Todd Pletcher
Post Position: 2
Odds: 3/1 Tapit Trice is also trying to become Tapit's fifth Belmont Stakes winner, as well as trainer Todd Pletcher's fifth winner in "The Test of the Champion." He suffered the first loss of his three-year-old season when he checked in seventh in the Kentucky Derby. He won the Grade I Blue Grass Stakes at Keeneland two-back.  Arcangelo Jockey: Javier Castellano
Trainer: Jena Antonucci
Post Position: 3
Odds: 8/1 Arcangelo was last seen prevailing in a gutsy effort in the Grade III Peter Pan at Belmont Park on May 13. The last horse to win both the local prep for the Belmont Stakes and the "Run for the Carnations" was Tonalist in 2014. The late-blooming son of Arrogate has 2023 Kentucky Derby-winning jockey Javier Castellano aboard once again.  National Treasure Jockey: John Velazquez
Trainer: Bob Baffert
Post Position: 4
Odds: 5/1 National Treasure made his sixth lifetime start in the Preakness Stakes a winning one, and it was his first-ever stakes victory. The Bob Baffert trainee will try to sustain his momentum after an up-and-down start to his career.  Il Miracolo Jockey: Marcos Meneses
Trainer: Antonio Sano
Post Position: 5
Odds: 30/1 Il Miracolo means "The Miracle" in Italian, and a miracle might be what he needs to win the 2023 Belmont Stakes. He finished no better than fifth in three separate Kentucky Derby preps at Gulfstream this season, and his allowance/optional claiming victory when last seen was not a fast one.   Forte Jockey: Irad Ortiz Jr.
Trainer: Todd Pletcher
Post Position: 6
Odds: 5/2 Forte was the morning-line favorite for the 2023 Kentucky Derby, but had to scratch due to a foot bruise less than 24 hours before the race. After hitting the state vet list, he was ineligible for the Preakness. But the reigning two-year-old champion and Grade I Florida Derby winner has worked well ahead of the Belmont for his return to the races. Hit Show Jockey: Manny Franco
Trainer: Brad Cox
Post Position: 7
Odds: 10/1 Hit Show gave a decent account of himself in the Kentucky Derby, finishing fifth, but he worked out a fairly clean trip despite drawing the rail. He would need to run a lifetime-best to take the Belmont, but trainer Brad Cox — winner of the 2021 Belmont with Essential Quality — could make it happen. Angel of Empire Jockey: Flavien Prat
Trainer: Brad Cox
Post Position: 8
Odds: 7/2 Angel of Empire was a solid third in the "Run for the Roses" behind Mage and Two Phil...
