We at Private Jets Charter have seen recent bookings soar for the upcoming Belmont Stakes. The eyes of horse racing fans everywhere will be focused on the village of Elmont, NY this Saturday, June 9th in hopes of seeing history being made. The last leg of the Triple Crown will be run as the Belmont Stakes gets underway. Belmont Park is getting special attention this year because fans could see the crowning of the first Triple Crown winner in in 34 years, since Affirmed won in 1978. After having won the Kentucky Derby and the Preakness, I’ll Have Another is the odds-on favorite to take Belmont, and thus the Triple Crown, making him only the 12th horse ever to win the coveted trifecta.
I'll Have Another
The pinnacle achievement in horse racing, winning the Triple Crown is particularly challenging because horses excel at races of different distances, with some stronger at the start while others have more stamina at the finish . The varying lengths of the three tracks involved in the Triple Crown, the Kentucky Derby at 1-¼ miles, the Preakness at 1-3/16 miles, and the Belmont Stakes at 1-½ miles, increase the difficulty and decrease the odds of producing a Triple Crown winner. This year I’ll Have Another has won all four races he’s entered and has shown he’s particularly strong down the stretch. If he has the endurance needed for the long track, history could indeed be made.
Belmont Park
This year’s much anticipated event is expected to be seen on television by even more than the record breaking 21.4 million who viewed it in 2004. It is not too late to grab a few of your friends and book your trip with Private Jets Charter. There are still local landing slots available and tickets to the event can still also be purchased for seating in the Park as well as in luxury hospitality tents onsite. Being there could finally give you good reason to shout, “I’ll Have Another!”
