Belmont Stakes Betting
Belmont Park is a major thoroughbred horse-racing facility located just outside New York City, in the adjacent Nassau County suburb of Elmont, Long Island. Its mile-and-a-half (2.4 km) main track is the largest dirt course in Thoroughbred racing.
When the Triple Crown is on the line (as it has been in six of the last 10 years), excitement and headcount rises dramatically, spawned by the chance to see history in the making. The Belmont Stakes winner receives a blanket of white carnations, consisting of 300-400 carnations glued onto a green velveteen spread. More Belmont Stakes Horse Contenders race Info

Where: at Churchill Downs, Louisville KY When: November 4-5, 2011 . Watch: See it on TV with ESPN and NBC
The 28th Breeders' Cup, Thoroughbred racing's most prestigious global event – currently consisting of 14 races held over two days with purses totaling $25.5 million – will be run on Friday, November 5 and Saturday, November 6, 2011, and will be televised live on ESPN, ABC and to a worldwide audience of more than 120 countries.
This will be the seventh time the Breeders' Cup has been held in Louisville, KY. Hollywood Park hosted the inaugural Breeders' Cup in 1984 and again in 1987 and 1997. The Breeders Cup also has previously been held at Santa Anita in 1986, 1993, 2003, 2008 and 2009.
The horse racing season's top contenders have their sights set on the Triple Crown, so the winner of the Preakness Stakes is usually found among the top ranks of the Kentucky Derby. The field isn't typically as large as the Kentucky Derby, but the Preakness Stakes brings with it a number of challenges and a tight mix of Derby contenders and local heroes. The Pimlico Race Course is known for its speedy surface and sharp turns, which are almost identical to the turns seen at Churchill Downs.
Winning all three legs of the Triple Crown (The Kentucky Derby, the Preakness Stakes and the Belmont Stakes) is the greatest accomplishment in Thoroughbred horse racing. Countless horses and riders have attempted the feat but in the 126-year history of the event only 11 horses have been able to pull it off. Affirmed was the last horse to do it in 1978, and the streak since then is the longest in history without a Triple Crown winner..

WIN, PLACE AND SHOW
Win: You win if your horse finishes first. Place: You win if your horse finishes either first or second. Show: You win if your horse finishes either first, second or third.
The odds commonly displayed on the Tote Board and on television monitors throughout
the track are the "win" odds. Here are the minimum payoffs on $2 win wagers:
The easiest bet to win is a show bet. If your selection finishes third or better, you win. The Pick 6, requiring the bettor to select six consecutive winners in as many races, or the Superfecta, requiring the bettor to select the correct 1-2-3-4 order of finish in a given race, are the most difficult. The higher the risk, the greater the payoff.

THE DON'TS 1. Don't bet favorites below 2-1 on top. 2. Don't box pairs of ling shots, which means horses at 11-1 or higher. Instead bet both horses to win. 3. Don't bet baseballs, taking 3 horses and betting every possible combination to come one-two, total of 6 combinations. Note: If you bet a low-price favorite on top, do not use the second and third betting choices on the bottom.
THE DO'S 1. Do bet the favorites on the bottom. 2. Do box pairs of medium-priced horses, such as 8-1 with 6-6. 3. Do bet long shots on top of favorites, but also bet on the long shot to win. 4. Do make sure you have a two to one ratio with the of what picks your are using.
