Sovereignty won the 157th Belmont Stakes on Saturday, finishing just ahead of the favorite Journalism to win another jewel of the Triple Crown.
The race marked a kind of replay of the Kentucky Derby. Sovereignty finished in first, Journalism ended up in second again and Baeza was third — the same 1-2-3 as the Derby.
The five days of racing were highlighted by Kentucky Derby winner Sovereignty’s sweeping victory over Derby runner-up and Preakness winner Journalism in the Belmont Stakes on Saturday.
