First Look: Belmont at Saratoga + 15 other graded stakes
Fourteen graded stakes are on the cards for Belmont Stakes weekend at Saratoga.
Among the matchups are the Kentucky Derby and Preakness winners in the Belmont. The top three Kentucky Oaks finishers in the Acorn. White Abarrio and National Treasure in the Met Mile. And Pretty Mischievous gets another shot at Idiomatic in the Ogden Phipps.
Entries have been taken for all the Saratoga stakes, but the Belmont and Met Mile won’t be drawn until Monday. The entries and jockeys for those two races are listed in the tables below.
Churchill Downs and Santa Anita also host graded stakes this weekend. Here’s a look at the likely fields.
Thursday
Belmont Gold Cup Invitational (G2), Saratoga, 2 miles (turf), 4-year-olds and up
Siskany, winner of this race last year in his first U.S. start, returns to New York after going 2-for-3 at Meydan, with a win in the Nad Al Sheba Trophy (G3) and a fourth in the Dubai Gold Cup (G2). The Grey Wizard rallied to finish second to Siskany here last year and is 0-for-3 since. Starting Over was second in his 2024 debut after a four-month break then came back to win the Mac Diarmida (G2) by a neck on March 2, his most recent start.

Belmont Stakes (G1), Saratoga, 1 1/4 miles, 3-year-olds
Lots of familiar names in the 11-horse field. All but one of the entries had their last race in the Kentucky Derby, Preakness or Peter Pan (G3). Sierra Leone looks for redemption after coming up short to Mystik Dan in the Kentucky Derby. D. Wayne Lukas is happy with the 1 1/4-mile distance, which Seize the Gray will try for the first time. Mindframe is the only one who never has tried a graded stakes. He won his debut by 13 3/4 lengths in March and then an optional-claiming allowance by 7 1/2 lengths on the Kentucky Derby undercard.

Summertime Oaks (G2), Santa Anita, 1 1/16 miles, 3-year-old fillies
Nothing Like You won the Santa Anita Oaks by 7 1/2 lengths after starting the year with a fourth-place finish in the Las Virgenes (G3). She had closed 2023 with a four-race win streak.
Unraced as a 2-year-old, Jane Austen is 2-for-2 and would try her first stakes. Miss Rockette, who sold for $1.25 million as a yearling, was second in her April debut and then broke her maiden last out at a mile.
