Program Description

Event Details

Join Michael Rodgers for this presentation on Long Island’s iconic thoroughbred horse racing facility Belmont Park and its storied past. The sweeping turns of its one ½-mile racetrack and the long homestretch have challenged the greatest Triple Crown thoroughbreds such as Secretariat, Seattle Slew, and American Pharaoh. The prestigious Belmont Stakes race is the true “Test of the Champion” and the final jewel of racing's Triple Crown with races run at the Preakness and the Kentucky Derby.
