Well, very late with this thread, but here are the results:
Equibase Belmont Chart (http://www.equibase.com/static/chart/pdf/BEL060510USA11.pdf)
and a nice article with the video of the race (if you didn't get to watch the race) on the winnner Drosselmeyer!
Drosselmeyer Wins (http://www.bloodhorse.com/horse-racing/articles/57374/drosselmeyer-wins-belmont-for-winstar-mott)
Congrats to first time Belmont winners Bill Mott and Mike Smith, 2 very classy guys in racing.
The sad story coming out of the Belmont is 5th place finisher Uptowncharleybrown was DQ'd to last place b/c up the backstretch an 8lb weight pad fell out of his saddle and therefore he only carried 118lb for the majority of the race. This of course was found out when the jocks weigh in after the race. That's a 30,000 dollar mistake.
Very interesting Triple Crown series with only First Dude having been in the money for more than one race. Should be interesting this summer to see who can become the dominent 3 yr old of 2010.
