Racetrack Info:
Belmont Park is the largest track in the United States.
It has three racing ovals. one grand one-mile main track
and two generous turf courses. A symbol of the track is
the tree located in the center of the paddock. The
Belmont logo represents that tree. |
Belmont
is the only Triple Crown race without an infield hosting
a mosh pit. It is, however, the only Triple Crown race
where general-admission fans can pile onto the track
apron and actually be lucky enough to see the race. |
The Belmont
Stakes Trophy
"The Belmont Stakes trophy is a Tiffany-made silver bowl, with
cover, 18 inches high, 15 inches across and 14 inches at the
base. Atop the cover is a silver figure of Fenian, winner of
the third running of the Belmont Stakes in 1869. The bowl is
supported by three horses representing the three foundation
thoroughbreds Eclipse, Herod and Matchem. The trophy, a solid
silver bowl originally crafted by Tiffany's, was presented by
the Belmont family as a perpetual award for the Belmont Stakes
in 1926. It was the trophy August Belmont's Fenian won in 1869
and had remained with the Belmont family since
that time. The winning owner is given the option of keeping
the trophy for the year
their horse reigns as Belmont champion."
