The Belmont Stakes, the oldest race in the Triple Crown series, is known as the “Test of the Champion.”
Arcangelo passed that test at the 155th running of the Belmont Stakes at Belmont Park.
The Belmont Stakes made its debut in 1905, and the 1 ½-mile race has been won by some of the greatest thoroughbreds in history, including Triple Crown winners Secretariat (1973) and American Pharoah (2015).
Thirteen horses completed the Triple Crown by winning the Belmont, with Justify being the most recent in 2018.
