A competitive renewal of the Shoemaker Mile Stakes anchors Santa Anita Park’s traditional Memorial Day card. Although it’s not a “Win and You’re In” Challenge Series race this year, the Grade 1 Shoemaker is still an important late-spring test for turf milers pointed to the Breeders’ Cup this fall.

A total of 15 stakes at Laurel Park, which hosted last weekend’s Black-Eyed Susan and Preakness Stakes days, has reshaped the Equibase leaderboard among 3-year-olds and older horses. Headlined by Napoleon Solo’s win in the Preakness, the weekend featured plenty of standout performances in stakes races on both the dirt and turf.

The Kentucky Derby Presented by Woodford Reserve and the Preakness Stakes are in the books, so now is the time to shift focus to the $2 million Belmont Stakes Presented by NYRA Bets June 6 in Saratoga Springs, N.Y.

Each week, members of the national media vote on the nation's top contenders on the Triple Crown trail in the National Thoroughbred Racing Association (NTRA) Top Thoroughbred Poll.

This year’s Belmont Stakes Presented by NYRA Bets will be held June 6, and for the third consecutive year the final jewel of the Triple Crown will be hosted by Saratoga Race Course in upstate New York.
