Sackatoga Stable has partnered with Smithfield for the 152nd running of the Belmont Stakes this Saturday, June 20, 2020. Tiz the Law, trained by Barclay Tagg and ridden by Manny Franco, will go into the Belmont Stakes as the morning line favorite. As part of the partnership, jockey Manny Franco will be branded in Smithfield apparel.
In addition, Smithfield and Sackatoga Stable will donate to the Backstretch Employee Service Team (B.E.S.T.) and the New York Chaplaincy Food Pantry which provides health and wellness services to the backstretch employees. The substantial cash and product donation of Smithfield bacon will help over 750 backstretch workers.
“Sackatoga Stable is pleased to partner with Smithfield brand in its sponsorship of Tiz the Law in the Belmont Stakes,” said Sackatoga Stable owner Jack Knowlton. “We are pleased that it represents a continuation of our financial support for two organizations which provide critical support to the backstretch workers at New York Racing Association tracks.”
“We are proud to support Sackatoga Stable and their mission to give back to the backstretch community during this unprecedented time,” said Eric Gibson, director of marketing at Smithfield Foods. “We are thrilled to sponsor Tiz the Law and wish the team the best of luck in the Belmont Stakes.”
