Daily News | 2023 Belmont Stakes: Forte is favored to win race at Belmont Park after scratching from Derby
Bob Baffert’s horse, National Treasure, has the third-best odds to win the 2023 Belmont Stakes, valued at 5-1, while Tapit Trice has the second-best odds at 3-1 and is another Todd Pletcher trained horse in the field.
National Treasure can become the 19th horse to win the Preakness and Belmont after either losing or skipping the Derby. Baffert is currently serving a two-year suspension at Churchill Downs, which is why National Treasure couldn’t race there this year. Only two horses from the Preakness Stakes a few weeks ago are set to run in this week’s Belmont and just three horses who raced in the Derby will compete on Saturday .
