A field of 10 has been drawn for Saturday’s shortened 152nd renewal of the GI Belmont S.
Tiz the Law (Constitution), a dominating winner of the GI Curlin Florida Derby Mar. 28, will break from post eight under regular rider Manny Franco in the first leg of the reshuffled Triple Crown going 1 1/8 miles. The 6-5 morning-line favorite is trained by Barclay Tagg for Sackatoga Stable.
“He does everything you ask him to, he’s very happy and content,” Tagg, sporting a facial covering, said before a small group of socially distanced media assembled in the Belmont Café Wednesday afternoon. “He likes this track, so I’m glad to be back here.”
