Todd Pletcher is one of the most accomplished trainers in the history of American horse racing and he’ll have two chances to add a fifth win at the 2025 Belmont Stakes on Saturday. The 2025 Belmont Stakes posts were drawn on Monday at Saratoga Race Course and Pletcher’s two 2025 Belmont Stakes entries will start side-by-side in the middle of the eight-horse field. Uncaged drew the No. 4 post and is a 30-1 longshot in the 2025 Belmont Stakes odds, while Crudo was assigned the No. 5 stall and is 15-1.
However, the majority of the headlines and 2025 Belmont Stakes betting will understandably be focused on favorites Journalism (8-5) and Sovereignty (2-1), who have each already won a leg of the Triple Crown. Post time is scheduled for 7:04 p.m. ET and the race will be shortened to 1 1/4 miles for the second year in a row with Saratoga hosting while Belmont Park is renovated. Before making any 2025 Belmont Stakes picks, be sure to see the horse racing predictions and futures bets from SportsLine’s elite horse racing expert Jody Demling.
A fixture in the horse racing world who has been writing about, talking about and betting on races for years, Demling hit the top three finishers at the Kentucky Derby in the correct order and then nailed the exacta in this year’s Preakness Stakes. He also predicted the winner of the Belmont Stakes four of the last seven years, including an exacta in 2022 with Mo Donegal and Nest. Anyone who has followed him on those picks is up huge and first-time users can boost their bankroll with the latest FanDuel Racing promo code and TwinSpires promo code. You can also check out the latest Belmont Stakes betting apps and Belmont Stakes betting promos before deciding how to bet the 2025 Belmont Stakes.
Now, with the 2025 Belmont Stakes around the corner, Demling is sharing his 2025 Belmont Stakes betting picks and 2025 Belmont Stakes predictions over at SportsLine. Go here to see them.
Top 2025 Belmont Stakes predictions
One of Demling’s surprising 2025 Belmont Stakes picks: He isn’t picking Sovereignty or Journalism to win, even though they each won a leg of this year’s Triple Crown and are the two favorites. These two horses were also the favorites at Churchill Downs and they were neck and neck as they came out of the final turn. After going stride for stride for a furlong, Sovereignty eventually pulled away over the final eighth-mile and won by 1 1/2 lengths.
The Kentucky Derby winner then bypassed the Preakness Stakes entirely and Journalism went on to earn a thrilling victory of his own, but he’ll have the difficult task of running for a third time in five weeks on Saturday. Meanwhile, Sovereignty will be fresher, but a smaller field might not bode well for the deep closer and they’ll both also have a handful of fresh entries on the Triple Crown trail to contend with, including Wood Memorial winner Rodriguez (6-1) and Peter Pan Stakes winner Hill Road (10-1).

This month will decide the direction of the Red Sox season
Deesha Thosar MLB Writer <!--> NEW YORK — Asked to characterize the first couple months of his club’s season, Red Sox manager Alex Cora looked down and repeated two barely-audible words. "Not great," Cora said in his pregame press conference on Friday, perched on a bench in the visitor’s dugout at Yankee Stadium. "Not great."Cora, typically animated and chatty with reporters, did not care to expand. From his hunched body language to the defeated tone behind his choice of words, the manager didn’t exactly give a vote of confidence for his flailing Red Sox team. It was an attitude that was poles apart from what Cora promised at the end of last year's season. After Boston finished 2024 with an 81-81 record, Cora said, multiple times, "I think this is the last time we’re going to struggle." Boy, was he wrong. And yet... […]

Sabalenková se po finále rozbrečela: Moc se vám omlouvám, bylo to strašné
Přitom vstup do zápasu měla Sabalenková snový. Dařilo se jí na podání, ve třetím a pátém gemu navíc díky dělovým returnům vzala Gauffové servis a dostala se do vedení 4:1. V tu chvíli ale začala kazit, skvělé winnery začaly střídat nevynucené chyby. Těch spáchala v prvním setu hned 37 (!). Na vině byl bezpochyby i silný vítr, který tenistkám ztěžoval jejich práci. „Podmínky byly šílené, ale Coco se s nimi dokázala popasovat lépe,“ přiznala sportovně Běloruska.Trojnásobná grandslamová šampionka promrhala náskok a v desáté hře prvního setu musela odvracet dva setboly. To se jí nakonec povedlo a o vítězce první sady rozhodoval tie-break. V něm rodačka z Minsku prohrávala už 1:4, nakonec však předvedla velký obrat a první set si pro sebe po dlouhatánských 78 minutách urvala.Do druhého sady ale vstoupila rodačka z Floridy jako vyměněná, prolomila hned první servis Sabalenkové a záhy se dostala do vedení 4:1, náskok si s přehledem pohlídala a po vítězství 6:2 si vynutila […]
