What time is the Belmont Stakes today? TV channel, post time, horses and more to watch 2026 Triple Crown race originally appeared on The Sporting News. Add The Sporting News as a Preferred Source by clicking here.
The first weekend of June brings one last Triple Crown showcase for 3-year-old thoroughbreds in the Belmont Stakes.
While none of the entrants ran all three races this year, the Belmont field features the much-anticipated return of Kentucky Derby champion Golden Tempo.
However, the horse he edged out at Churchill Downs, Renegade, is the heavy betting favorite Saturday with 1-1 odds. Golden Tempo and fellow Derby horses Commandment and Chief Wallabee were all at 6-1 and cannot be counted out.
It should be an exciting race over a mile and a quarter at the Saratoga Race Course, which will host the Belmont for the third (and final) time before the event returns to its traditional home at Belmont Park after the completion of extensive renovations there.
Here's when to tune in for the 2026 Belmont Stakes.
