The 2006 Belmont Stakes will feature a field of 12 running in the "Third Jewel" of the Triple Crown of horse racing. The $1 Million Belmont Stakes is the longest and most demanding leg of the Triple Crown Series, and it runs this weekend. Look for a rematch between Derby protagonists Bluegrass Cat, Steppenwolfer and Bob and John.
Here's the post position, contender and opening odds from the New York Racing Association.
