Title: Opening Vegas lines for belmont
Post by: dougie on June 01, 2025, 11:00:13 PM

Caesars Sportsbook in Vegas make Sovereignty 8-5 favorite with Journalism 9-5 2nd choice. Baeza (my pick) is 9-2. With 8 horses now going, tomorrows post position draw will be very interesting.

post positions should mean very little in a 10 furlong race at Saratoga

Journalism will be favored

I’ll agree with you on Baeza.  Was rapidly gaining on the 1st 2 in the Derby after getting off slowly from the far outside in Kentucky.
