American Grade I stakes race for three-year-olds at Belmont Park
Cherie DeVaux has become the first woman to win the Kentucky Derby and Belmont Stakes, guiding Golden Tempo to Belmont success as the track reopens after renovations; debate lingers over theTriple Crown, including the skipped Preakness.
The Triple Crown is reshaped as the Preakness moves to late May, Belmont to June, and a new 3-year-old championship series is introduced. The changes aim to bolster participation and viewership but may end the streak of a 2027 Triple Crown winner.
