2022 Belmont Stakes Entries

Topping the Belmont betting we find Mo Donegal, who stayed on to finish fifth from a tricky draw in the Kentucky Derby last time out. We The People earned his spot in this Classic with a superb ten-length triumph in the Group Three Peter Pan Stakes here at Belmont Park, and Rudolphe Brisset's contender sits second in the betting.

Shock Kentucky Derby winner, Rich Strike skipped leg two of the US Triple Crown, the Preakness Stakes to prepare for a tilt at this huge prize. Preakness Stakes third, Creative Minister also sits prominently in the Belmont Stakes market.

Charge It and Taiba will be looking to bounce back, after underwhelming performances in the Kentucky Derby. Todd Pletcher's Nest, last seen finishing second in the Kentucky Oaks, could take on the colts for the first time in her short career.

Other notable Belmont Stakes entrants include Rebel Stakes runner-up Ethereal Road, John Ortiz's consistent colt Barber Road, Blue Grass Stakes second Smily Happy, and Mark Casse's colt Golden Glider.
