More about the Belmont Stakes and Saratoga Race Course
The Belmont Stakes returns to historic Saratoga Race Course in 2026, continuing a temporary relocation that has provided racing fans with a unique opportunity to see one of horse racing’s most prestigious events contested at one of America’s most iconic venues. First run in 1867, the Belmont Stakes is the third leg of the Triple Crown and traditionally tests the sport’s best three-year-olds in a demanding late-spring championship.
Opened in 1863, Saratoga Race Course is widely regarded as the oldest major sporting venue in the United States still hosting its original sport. Nestled among towering trees in the heart of Saratoga Springs, the track is known for its intimate atmosphere, rich traditions, and reputation for producing memorable upsets and championship performances. While smaller than its usual home at Belmont Park, Saratoga offers a distinctive backdrop that combines history, elegance, and passionate racing fans. The venue’s picturesque setting and often variable early-summer weather make it one of the most unique and celebrated stops on the North American horse racing calendar.
