The Easiest Way to Attend the Belmont Stakes
By | March 25, 2016
As the third jewel of the Triple Crown™, the Belmont Stakes is a bucket list event for all horse racing fans. When American Pharoah earned the coveted title in 2015 – the first Thoroughbred to do so in 37 years – there wasn’t an empty seat at Belmont Park. The race sold out early, and the “horse of a lifetime” was watched intently by a crowd of 90,000 as he pulled ahead and put 5 ½ lengths between himself and his closest competitor as he crossed the finish line.
Will we see another Triple Crown™ winner in 2016? Could it be one of the current contenders on the Road to the Kentucky Derby® – perhaps Nyquist or Mohaymen? Will you be present to see another Thoroughbred make history? If your biggest obstacle is the hassle of piecing together tickets, hotel rooms, transportation, hospitality, and your itinerary in general, just select an all-inclusive package from Belmont Experiences for the easiest and most stress-free Belmont Stakes trip you can imagine.
