Belmont Stakes 2012: Post Positions, Start Time, Live Stream And More

On Saturday, the 2012 Belmont Stakes will take place. While the running of one of the three most famous thoroughbred races in the world is sure to be exciting, there will be no possibility of a Triple Crown Winner in 2012.

On Friday, for just the third time in history, a horse withdrew from the Belmont Stakes after winning the Kentucky Derby and the Preakness Stakes. Trainer Doug O'Neill announced on the Dan Patrick Show early on Friday that I'll Have Another would be withdrawing from the race due to injury and would likely be retiring.

In the wake of I'll Have Another withdrawing from the race, Dullahan has become the new betting favorite.
